A junior high schoolyard game in which kids, usually boys, walk up to a friend or random student and slap him hard on the back of the neck. This behavior usually results in a red welt where the slap was inflicted. It’s origins have been traced back to the early schoolyards of the 1800s in Nova Scotia. Students think that because of its harmless name “The Ol Slaparoo” there are no consequences for it, but they soon discover that the principals flip their lids over this game. It’s like chill out you snowflake; it’s just a darn game.
