Ah, buckeyes. A favorite game as a youth was the buckeye fight. Each contestant has a buckeye on a shoestring. Alternate turns whacking the opponents buckeye with your buckeye, hoping to break it off the string.
A good buckeye could last through a dozen fights. Legendary buckeyes could reach twenty wins.
(Hint: Soaking the buckeye in vinegar was the equivalent of modern day steroids.)
