Kick back and relax. Anything that does not have to do with footbag goes here!

I swear it seems like at least half the people on here are stoners, and I had thought footbag wanted to lose the image of stoners in a circle kicking a bag?

Probably because not everyone thinks it is as cool as you do.

Lots of sun here too. Went to Central Park to light up with Mary Jane and some friends. Sat there for a good hour sunbathing. Then went to do a short shred and bailed badly on inside mirage. :P

Well, it was a good 420 to say the least.

Great job feeding the stereotype everyone :) I can see it now, we finally get footbag as an olympic sport and all our athletes fail the drug test. Way to be.

Please note that I have no problem with weed or the people who smoke it. I have my own reasons for not smoking it and I think it's definitely a personal choice that you are each free to make.

I do have a problem with April 20th, but not because of weed, because of Hitler's birthday. I thought a lot about the holocaust yesterday. It wasn't fun.

Jon... that yoda pic is fucking great.

I had class all day and a midterm on 4/20... but i think that's best; i was actually being productive on 4/20 for once.

Just because people smoke doesn't mean they're a lazy circle kicking stoner.
If you don't like it that's fine but don't preach.. especially in a 4/20 thread.

seriously. not only do a lot of footbaggers smoke (possibly a small majority), but some of the best in the world do as well...so if you want to get really good and be just like a lot of your footbag role models, spark up a blizz and kick that sack

If you think that hacky sack's stoner image is fueled by pot smoking footbaggers... Well, it's time for a reality check. :)

Happy 4/20! I simultaneously stayed sober, and hit a bowl at 4:20 PM on 4/20. You many not understand how this is possible, but that's okay, because its true.

Jesus Christo...what's the percentage of marijuana usage in the footbag community? 95%? Call me ignorant, but this was a total suprise to me lol.

*puts on flamm retardant vest* "I guess the stoner population just went from hacky sacks to footbags, eh?"
