Hacky Sack
Hacky Sack (also known as Hackey Sack) is the trademarked name of a type of footbag. The traditional game is played when two or more players stand in a circle and try to keep the sack (or footbag), off of the ground. The game starts when one player picks up the sack and tosses it to the chest of another player, who allows it to fall to his feet so he can kick it, and play begins. Play continues until the sack falls to the ground, then a player picks up the sack and the game resumes. The object of the game is to keep the sack off the ground for as long as possible. If every player gets a touch to the sack before it hits the ground, it is called a 'hack'. If every player gets two touches before the sack hits the ground, it is called a 'double-hack' and so on and so forth. The name Hacky Sack has become a genericized trademark, and can refer to either the sack (or footbag) itself or a footbag game. Some common tricks include stalls, bag daggers, lifts, loops, ham spalts, and milk tosses. It was seen being played as far back as 1955 in the movie " To Catch a Thief". ==History== The name "hacky sack" came from the 1972 inventors of the footbag, John Stalberger and Mike Marshall.〔(Footbag Worldwide FAQ )〕 Although Marshall suffered a fatal heart attack in 1975, Stalberger continued the business.〔 In 1983, Stalberger sold the title to Wham-O. The idea of the game is similar to traditional Asian games of kicking the shuttlecock, known as Jianzi and Chapteh. The game is also similar to some South East Asian games, such as Sepak Takraw and Sipa. The same principle is applied in football-playing countries with footballs in a sport called freestyle football/freestyle soccer. The game of hacky-sack remained popular throughout the mid 1990s among the 'hippy', 'stoner' and "Grunge" crowds of Generation X, but experienced a falling-out with the turn of the century. Hacky-sack was a popular game played during free-periods at schools around the world in the 1990s and early 2000s. It has also been used in various music videos such as Weezer's "Say it Ain't So".
