Potsy is a variation of Hopscotch. The way it was played in New York in the 1950s was on a chalked grid of alternating one an two squares. The grid has only 8 squares compared to Hopscotch's 10 or 12, rendering the game a little easier. Any small object can be the marker, a rock, flattened tin can or nearly anything else small enough and heavy enough to toss-- is thrown onto the grid and must land in each square in sequence. The term Potsy refers to the throwing item as well as the game itself. The player jumps from one to two feet up to the grid skipping the square holding the potsy. She then jumps to turn around and jumps back the same way. Missing your throw, losing your balance or stepping on a line causes the player to lose a turn. A potsy landing on a line is considered "out". The player goes until a turn is lost. First one to finish the grid wins.
The girls didn't have enough chalk to draw the entire Hopscotch grid so they agreed to play Potsy instead.

Get the potosop mug.When u take a banana, loosely wrap it in duct tape, and carry it around in your pocket for an hour or so while you do your regular activities. Once the banana is fairly mushy and warm you cut off one end, shove your lil woodrow in, and make sweet sweet love to everyone's favorite source of potassium... and bananas never ask you to cuddle. You may want to shower afterward as u will have banana bits on your junk area. It's sort of ironic because a fruit that is notorious for looking like a peter is now a vagina!!!
