THAT’s funny!
(((SNORT))))
I remember back in ‘60-’63 midwest Jr HS (grades 6-9), when coach told us (jr league football) to get ‘protective cups’ when gear was issued. We had no idea WTH those were. That evening, at least 15 of us w/ our Dads showed-up at the local sporting goods store, and cleaned ‘em out. Owner had to go to another town’s store to get enough for rest of team.
Ah, the memories...
‘59-’62...
FUnny thing is...if the kid had said a “Jock strap with a cup” I would have been OK! I KNEW about jock straps and a cup (brother played hockey, and when I was 10 I was pissed off that during school shopping HE got a jock strap and I didnt (My dad and I had a chat about \that) LOL.......NOW picture a dad of the 50s telling his daughter...”No Darlin, you do not get a cup, but in a few years, you get a double barrel sling shot! Just ask mom about that one!!”
(true story)To this day I think my mother holds a grudge agaoinst me and dad for making her splain that one ;-)
