Footbag in the movies.

Post by delakong »

Hey fellas, haven't talked to y'all in a while but I was watching some movies with my girl and the last two that played both had footbag in them and it made me want to come here. In Clueless, the "brother" is kicking a bag around after Alicia Silverstone fails her driving test and in She's All That, the dorky (but fine as hell) girl makes the main character go up on stage at some art performance (very queer) and he improvises by making some artsty poem while kicking a bag. He does a couple legovers and then he did some other trick that I didn't really catch. I wonder if it was really him. Hmmmmm......

Well, gotta go eat the omlet/scrambled eggs/sausage kinda thing that she just cooked for me, wish me luck. :wink:

Was an extra in "A Love Song for Bobby Long" which was a movie that came out a year or so ago. Me and some friends had a cicle going for about a second in the movie.

There's an add on TV in Australia at the moment advertising VB beer (which controversially stands for "Victoria Bitter" and not "Very Bad" as I always thought) basically saying what a great bloke David Boon (Former Australian cricketer from Tasmania who also held (or maybe still holds) the record for drinking the most beers on a plane trip (52 beers!)

Anyway one of the lines in the ad is something along the lines of "he didn't get those abs playing hacky sack" - Obviously suggesting that people who play hackysack have ripped abs since Boony has a big beer gut (and always has). :)

Hack circles are in approximately 500 billion movies and TV shows. But 'She's all that' now THAT was cool :)

Well I'm not sure if this really counts, but did anyone see the uncut version of Dukes Of Hazzard?

For like 10 seconds, there's a bunch of topless girls kicking around a hacky sack. One girl kicks it twice I think.

I'm sure all of those girls will forever be remembered in the history of film for that amazing scene.

in the movie "harold and kumar go to white castle", when kumar is buying pot from the hippie guy, there is a group of kids playing hackysack in the back left of the screen. Its kinda hard to tell what exactly they are doing because its dark, but you can clearly tell they are playin.
