I thought this was about the schoolyard game foursquare.
I am ashamed to admit this, but I played that all the way through 8th grade.
...
Now that I know what Foursquare is, I have to say, foursquare seems preferable.
- MicahWedemeyer 17y agoDon't be ashamed. It's an awesome game. Who knows, maybe there will be adult intramural leagues some day, like there are with kickball and dodgeball.
- PieSquared 17y agoNot only is it an awesome game, it can be a true art. I have seen four-square players who turned the game into a noncompetetive sport, similar to hackeysack, which allowed them to pull tricks you'd never imagine. Ever seen someone do a flip after deflecting a four-square ball, land in a push up position, and then deflect it again with their head? I'm telling you, these guys were amazing.
- kobs 17y agoDon't be ashamed: there are weekly foursquare games in one of the most trafficked parts of my university's campus.
- rms 17y agoYeah, there are also games at the University of Pittsburgh. I never played because I was convinced it was a secret front for the bible study group run by the founders of the club. Recently, I mentioned this to one of the current officers of the Pitt foursquare club and she mentioned that the founders really were into their bible study, but they ran foursquare separately. I missed out.
