Comment submitted with request to delete: "I am afraid I must protest. Your shindig antics are in breach of a copyright on the word shindig. I made this copyright back in the recession of 58. Times were hard back then for me and Penny, and our seventeen children, so I made the best of what was a harsh situation by legally taking out as many copyrights as I could. I have legal rights to the following: Cars, Aeroplanes, Space shuttles, Submarines, Hot air ballons, Chemistry sets, Webcams, Snooker and of course, shindigs. That will be seventeen thousand Euro's please. I have no preferences on notes, but mainly twenty and a K of 5o's would be helpful. Thank you for your time."

A word commonly used by British skaters and BMX riders, pertaining to the many scars/scabs/fresh wounds on their shins, skaters due to missing tricks and hitting their board / concrete pole they were failing to grind, and BMXers due to either the above, or having the foot slip off the pedal (usually metal studded) and long scrapes taken out of the shin.
skater: word, you seen these shindigs?

Get the shindig mug.
a game which involves players sitting down on the floor, legs straight, and exposing their shins and (in professional shindig) their feet. players sit close together in a row (less than 10) or form a circle facing inwards (more than 10). a stone or other object is thrown up at an unlimited height which is to be aimed at other players target zones (below lower thigh). a free drop is awarded when a player flinches before a hit, when a stone is thrown without an arc in it's projection or when a stone is thrown beyond the target zone. a free drop is when a player stands above the offending players shin raises the stone or object to head height and is allowed to drop the stone at any part of the target zone. you can only leave the game immediately after you have been hit, and do not get to throw again. the winner is the last one sitting.
