What kind of dumb outside games did you play as a kid? Hopscotch? Kicking a ball? What?

...wait did you just say that football is a "dumb outside game"

Looks like I still play at least one of them, then. d: Anyway I played like... them all? I think? All the ones that our lot played anyway.

I used to pretend I was a Nascar Driver on my bike. Back when I was a kid, I used to be highly obsessed with Nascar (IE: Jeff Gordon, Terry & Bobby Labonte at the time). We had this medium-sized field on the right side of our house. I used to pretend it was a race track.

I also used to play with matchbox cars. I would draw little chalk buildings and roads for them and pretended well... you've seen Cars right? Yeah, like that. I used to make them talk in funny voices. Then, my dad would get home from work and run over my cars... making the flat as pancakes because I didn't pick them up. Oops! XD

...Yeah. Please don't ask. I was a weird child.

You should come play football with me! Was my favorite game to play outside as a kid(American football though). I was never great at backyard soccer :x

I am pretty sure I played Pokemon with my brother a ton outside too, but it was fun 8D

The house I grew up in was located right on a nice, round cul-de-sac, a perfect arena for various games like that. :D I definitely remember baseball, frisbee, kickball...I forget what else.

Although if I wasn't doing that, I was likely running around with my friends pretending we were our favorite characters from whatever and acting stuff out so yeah.

Too many. I had a trampoline so we had about 50 different games (that were basically all the same thing just pretending to be something different) that we would play on that. Then trying to find the biggest stick we could so we could beat each other with it was always fun. American football. Airsoft wars and a lot of wrestling.

Foursquare was the most popular game at school when I was in third-fourth grade; every kid would play either that or kickball at recess, and both were my favorite games. We used to be allowed to play dodgeball, but iirc my school banned that and tag after a while. At home, my brother and I would sometimes play different, silly games with his scooter.

I'd pull out of my radio and dance on the trampoline pretending I have thousands of fans below me screaming out my name and craving my autograph. I used to design obstacle courses in my backyard and run through them repeatedly. I'd also reenact Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory for some reason.

We'd actually play Pokemon haha not as in the video games but more a kind of role play?
As in one was the trainer and the other was their Pokemon (ALL of them, simultaneously). Sometimes we had a third friend who'd be a loser enemy with only Caterpies. Good times.
We also sometimes role played as the Sailor Moon characters.

And then there was standard stuff like hide and seek or tag.

I used to pretend that I was part of whatever fictional world I was obsessed with at the time. At one point, it was Harry Potter. My longest-running "adventure" was pretending to be traveling around with Ash in the Pokemon world, and I would reenact whatever episode I just watched.

At school, for recess, I would play a lot of [American] "football" with a group of classmates. Though I use "football" loosely because it was really just one side against the other throwing a football back-and-forth.

we used to gather all of the kids in the neighborhood and go to my friend's house that sat on the tallest hill on the street, pile into a wagon and push each other down the hill. we used the wagon's handle to steer the direction we wanted to go after we hit the bottom of the hill. fun af

I used to play tons of games! Bullrush, monkey grip, the floor is lava, pac man, hide and seek, dodgeball, skipping, football, stuck in the mud...

I also used to pretend I was a pokemon trainer with a bunch of friends and we'd pretend to battle in real life, complete with chasing and sound effects. That was pretty cool.

Honourable mentions also go to Marco Polo but I stopped playing that after I tripped straight over a bench and fell face flat onto the concrete in second grade. oops 8)

Spin the bottle. I was corrupted oh so quickly.

There was a game where it was sort of like tag though where you could sit down to avoid being caught but someone else would have to tap you on the head so you were able to move again. That was pretty cool.

We played all kinds of goofy games that I can't even remember them all. A fun one was actually one we played with my family. It was basically wiffle ball except with a half inflated small pink ball and we made up ridiculous rules as we went along.
