the object of that game was to keep the tire running without falling for as long as u could. he's holding a stick with a piece from a gallon of milk attached to it. my pops teared up when i took this pic and sent it to him because it reminded him of his youth in DR and his older brother who passed away at 9 who taught him how to do it :to:

We used to do spinning top fights. Remove the top metal piece and jam in a nail. It would destroy other tops when you peg it.

Learnt a lil trick from the hood dudes, we would steal a shopping cart, and take a chisel and chisel off a long piece of metal. It was better steel than old nails. That shyt would destroy any top it landed on.

I was a beast at marbles. Draw my lil ring, and just be working nikkas over for their shyt. All day every day til around 9 or 10. After that the NES came out and shut shyt down.
