Geez, when I was a kid in Brooklyn, we played a school yard game called "Hide the Belt". Someone would hide a belt and declare a home base. Everyone would go looking for the belt. The person would found it could beat the living sh*t out of any and all until they found sanctuary at home base.
Now that was a game that helped turn boys into men.

Hide the Belt sounds vaugely like Smear the Queer.

In Smear the Queer one person would take a football and start running like hell. Everyone else would chase after him and try to tackle him and pound the crap out of him to get the ball. Once you got the ball, you'd start running like hell with everyone now after you.

There wasn't a purpose to the game, and no, of corse the girls did not play. Great name though.
