[quote author=garvin link=topic=12082.msg117638#msg117638 date=1430755214]They weren't that good at it, so the Frisbee was constantly banging off walls and doors.
Actually that's the appeal of indoor frisbee. Having the disc go careening around the hallway adds a good bit of unpredictability and fun to it!

It beats the hallway bowling some of my dorm-mates engaged in toward the end of finals one year before the bowling alley in Tressider closed. I know finals weren't over because I was trying to sleep before taking my last two finals the next day. I yelled some obscenities at them so they moved to the other end of the hall but I could still hear the loud banging and crashing sounds. I can't recall what they were using for pins, but they ended up having to pay for the damage to several doors.Â

They nailed a target (actually a cheeseburger) on a bulletin board at the end of the hall, then went down toward the other end of the hall and started shooting at it. At exactly the wrong moment, an unsuspecting soul walked out of a dorm room into the hallway and took an arrow to the arm. I suspect that may have been the only arrow wound they saw in the student health center that year . . . .
Maybe not. Was it far enough in the past that Stanford was still the Indians?Â
