Whirlpool Game

1989, Age 7

Um, pool games? Yeah! Having a circular, above ground pool in Louisville may tip your reputation a bit further towards the white trash end of the scale, but it is the perfect venue for playing the whirlpool game. And such a simple game! Throw your rafts in there, get everyone along the edge, and forge ahead! Soon the current sweeps the smaller of us (me) spiraling out of control. Ah, the joys of science! Note, I have tried this game in an inground pool, but the rectangular shape and variation in depth ruin it.
