This game single handedly had me borrowing pencils all school year

[Save $ not Hoes]

I remeber taking the eraser out and squeezing the metal part together to form that battle axe

One hitter quitters with the flick of the wrist

 

[DrunkenNovice]

I actually remember getting in a fight over this game.

I don't know how to describe it but I used my index finger and slammed through somebody's pencil

 

[GzUp]

I used to take the eraser and fold and sharpen the metal thinking I was gonna cut through the pencil

 

[JoelB]

played this in middle school

 

[Dr. Acula]

Wtf is this struggle shyt. Never seen anyone do this in my life.

Negged!

 

[rdot]

I remember this. I think it was called like bloody chicken or something

Man we used to play some stupid ass games, my hand would be killing me and I’d still be playing

There was also this bloody knuckle game, you’d slide coins at each other’s knuckles till they gave up or something like that

Man we used to play this shyt all the time, have all types of fukked up knuckles if you was trash

 

[Dr. Acula]

Anyone play paper football or quarter hockey?

 

[Yaboysix]

I seem to remember this with plastic spoons...or the middle finger

You couldn’t use them light brown #2 pencils either, I forgot what they were called but y’all remember em. They were soft as hell.

Any pencils with angles was at a disadvantage, even the yellow ones.

But those round muthafukkas? Seemed like those were tanks. Straight up.

We just called it pencil fighting down here

You can tell when somebody dont know how to play, they show up with them rubber ducky ass pencils.

Yooo the rubber pencils lol

Brehs used to call they own shot too. Call out "First Lick" and destroy your pencil on the first round

There were some that were beast with the one, two or three hits, like they studied in the Shaolin Temples or something...have you furious and in awe at that shiit....its like they knew the exact point to hit it

Negroes were really studying this shyt like a science

some of us would lightly tap the opponents pencil in 2-3 spots before the actual hit, trying to direct any tiny difference in sound that indicated a “weak” spot. Had to outlaw that shyt . Negroes got PhDs in pencil acoustics .

You poor child...this was elementary all day every day





I had the cheap pencils for this game and then I had my Lisa Franks and Ticonderogas

my dawg said the lisa franks



never played with her pencils . Didn’t even think they were poppin like that .

Dope that this was universal across the country and not just my neck of the woods.

We use to call it pencil pop in bham. It's crazy other folks was doing this shyt at the same time in other places.

It’s wild when you try think about it

The Black Warrior was so legendary that it was the only pencil that everyone agreed that we couldn't use.

Legendary

 

[Mr Rager]

You gotta give it two taps before you take your real shot, these dudes trash

 

[Hiphoplives4eva]

They tried to ban anyone from playing pencils at our 6th grade center kids were playing for quarters they deemed it gambling

Yup. We used to leave the schools yard littered with broken pencils. They banned it eventually and gave nikkas detention that they caught playing.

hating ass teachers

that was me! One hitta quitta. The key is using the entire length of the pencil along with proper wrist action. Anyone with a brand new pencil was a prime target. The shorter the pencil, the harder to pull it off. Would love to tell you the details but I’ve have to kill ya.

 

[Xyrax]

We used to call it pencil crack in the N.O.

Called it Pencil Break or Crack (both) in Chicago.

I was mediocre

 

[shutterguy]

They had to keep these machines in our school restocked at all times.
