Title: Ball Tossing Game
Post by: proudlao on July 28, 2013, 10:16:38 PM
Is the ball tossing game during Hmong new year a form of today's speed dating? If so, wish I was younger  ;D

It can be.  Although you get better results standing next to the girl you like and tossing the ball to her friend.  It's kinda hard to do much talking when you're actually her partner cause you so far apart.

Tossing ball is gaining popularity among the young.

Can't wait til this New Years...all my nieces will be flying in from all over the US.  Tossing ball this year will be a blast for daughter and nieces....so many of them.

I love it when you're playing that game
the game where if you dont catch the ball then you have to give something away.
yeah, love it when i toss the ball really hard
and it goes flying and bounce on someone else's head!!!

LOVE IT!!!

That makes sense, so you really don't get to talk to them? And everything is by looks and when you find them attractive do you just approach them and chase them?  ;D

PL, the game is very much like strip poker... if you drop the ball, you give something of yours to her... and if she drops the ball, she gives you something.  The idea is that later on... when you meet up with her to give back her things... that is when you get to know her and you can then make your moves.




That's how my first love got me... lolz.  For each item, I would have to dance with him once at the new year... I gave him so many things, I ended up dancing with him all night.

I like to walk by them and start cok blocking those hmong kids. 

To test if the hmong chick likes me or not, I would give them the gesture to throw me the ball.  If do then proceed.  If don't then who cares, I'm not hmong anyway.   :2funny:

Cleaver, you are a planner.
 
The first girl you see who doesn't have a ball in her hand. Just make sure you don't smack her in the head.  ;D

lol What would happen if I had smack her in the head? Throw ball at bb's head  ;D
