Everytime it was thrown or hit, it would flutter in the air. It was used for a couple innings. The teams soon divided up into guys vs. girls, with clarinets making up most of the girls team. Other crushed beer cans were used as bases. The real breakthrough came when Geoff Wool finished his can of Fosters.
Fosters puts their beer in very large and sturdy cans.
When crushed, it makes an excellent ball for Stickball. Our bus was broken down on the side of the road, the rest of the band didn't know where we were, and we were without any of our stuff from the bus. The teams grew, and since there weren't enough girls, some guys joined the girls team. What was funny was when local motel patrons came and watched us playing in the parking lot. There were some drunk truckers who came by one time and saw us still playing a few hours later.
