Hi Guys.
The people at the village played some street games, and I thought that you would be interested as well.
Some of them are obviously familiar to you, like the bowling and the horseshoe throwing (I don't know if it has a specific name in english)
But I do not think there is one similar to the three arms cross. The idea is to throw this discs alternatively light one, heavy one and so on to hit the the three armed cross. By alternating the weight one looses the aprenticeship from the previous throw.
If you hit the vertical pole or stem counts 5 points, the big arm counts 10, the medium 15 and the smallest 20.
An added difficulty is that the arms spin around the colum when they are hit by the weight and they stop in an aleatory position so if you want to hit them again they might only showing you the edge or be turned 45 degrees.
As you can see the thrower stands pretty far from the cross.
Some more foreing popular culture for you Rennie
