Stalberger moved forward and formed the National Hacky Sack Association which established official rules and helped to control the growth of the fledgling sport.

I've seen the bad fad's one before, makes me angry. It annoys me when people refuse to call it footbag and not hacky sack... darn people... but I like so much of the stuff on the bad fads site... lets see crossword puzzles, drive in theaters, inline skates, miniature golf, and model trains. Oh yeh and how in the world is rocky horrer picture show a fad! Lets see a fad is extremely popular for a short time and then dies out. I don't think rocky horrer picture show was ever that popular, and it's still going strong today I think... I just saw it showing in a theatre at midnight like 2 weeks ago.

We've had that a while ago, I remember. I dunno, I thought that
quote was funny. They've most definately never seen Footbag
Freestyle.

The ignorant shall remain ignorant. Poor Bastards..

You know there's a "comment" link at the top where you could probably complain about it. If enough people did, they'd just get annoyed eventually and take it off possibly?
