13 Places to Play Wall Ball

Ah, wall ball, the great American game. If you never played wall ball growing up then God bless you, because you must have had a terrible childhood. This great American pastime can be played anywhere where there's a wall, which is what makes it so amazing. Here are 13 places that have walls suitable for an intense game of wall ball.

1. Great Wall of China

I felt that it would be appropriate to start off with the most famous wall in the history of walls. Think about how insane a game of wall ball would be on the Great Wall. You could play for miles and miles.

2. Donald Trump's Mexican Border Wall, Circa 2019

It might get a little hot there but at least you won't have to pay for it.

3. Hoover Dam

Little known fact: the dam was named after Herbert Hoover because of his intense love of the game of wall ball, as President Franklin D. Roosevelt saw how Hoover would've loved the location and playing grounds.

4. Green Monster, Fenway Park

Ugh, okay here we go. Fenway sucks and is a disgusting troll infested, puke green, smelly mistake of a place, but it has a really big wall. I would play my game here and then light the place on fire.

5. Berlin Wall, circa 1980

We'll stay on the West side of the wall for this one. I wonder if kids ever did play games on the wall...and this is why the internet is so damn cool:

6. Outside old Yankee Stadium, circa 2000

If there's any place I miss in the world, it's the good Yankee Stadium. The one that was loud, full of energy, and awe-inspiring. The one that when you walked into, you felt a presence that you could feel but couldn't explain. I miss the giant walls covering the outside that made me feel like an ant walking by as a kid. *sniffles* *wipes away tears*

7. Roman Colosseum

I don't know if there is a single wall to actually play on but there's gotta be somewhere in the place to play. Losing would be punishable by death.

8. Black Gate, Mordor

Ah, good old lovely Mordor. If the gate starts to open, the game is over, pull out your sword.

9. Whatever wall Humpty Dumpty was sitting on

He fell off because kids kept trying to peg him in the legs and he slipped.

10. Great Pyramids of Egypt

You might get some sand in your shoes but as they did in the ancient times, the winner gets to be pharaoh.

11. Stonehenge

It would be like playing on a huge wall with a few holes in it, making Stonehenge one of the world's toughest wall ball playing grounds.

12. Pearly Gates of Heaven


What if you actually get to the pearly gates and you have to play God in order to get in? Better start practicing now. Or you get to heaven and just start playing wall ball before you go in, causing a raucous and making God come to the gates to ask what is going on. "Yeah God hold on. Lemme just finish this game real quick."

13. Beekman Rec

Well of course my old stomping grounds make the list. This is where I grew up playing wall ball and where I still do working at summer camp. Hands down the best place to play. Unlike the Yankees, the Town of Beekman hasn't replaced their old walls because they know that any new ones won't be better.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
