Isn't there several references in the sagas about a game played where the
participants pelted each other with gnawed bones from the evening meal?
 
OOOOOO, zider....***drool, drool***   Sing with me now children, "I got me a
combine harvester."  (too bad cider doesn't like me)

I know of the Zummerzet 'sport' of taking turns whacking each other with a
stick until one of the participants was too dazed or bruised to continue.
Not sure when it died out but it was referred to recently on the Wedmore,
Somerset egroup.
Somerset being in the agrarian part of south west England for those in North
America.
Where the Zider Apples Grow   OOOO - ARGHHHH  !!
