Socks are still allowed, so the game can continue.
And if the administration bans socks, I’m sure that the students will be inventive enough to create another “weapon”. Perhaps underwear? Reminds me of one bored little boy at Wal-Mart shooting thongs from the lingerie section like rubberbands. Surely no college administration can ban underwear.
When thongs are outlawed, only outlaws will wear thongs.
