Flick-A-Turd
Flick-A-Turd is a children’s game that involves flicking ones shoe from ones foot towards a target whilst on a swing. The game involves two players, the closest to the target wins.
History:
The game was invented circa 1994 by innovators James Kenny and Thomas Holman in the play area between Wimborne Drive and Blandford Gardens in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire.
Rules:
The games rules are relatively simple- the players shoe must be flicked from the foot towards the target and the closest shoe to the target after all players have taken their turns is the winner. The shoe must be flicked while riding a swing. If a players shoe comes into contact with the target, that player is disqualified.
An unofficial rule of the game is to not wear new trainers while playing Flick-A-Turd else you’re mum will go mental.
Incidents:
Few incidents have been recorded but on one occasion police have been involved when a shoe was flicked beyond the boundaries of a privately owned property, resulting in a trespass when the player went to collect their shoe.
