Yeah, haha. I mean I guess they're ghetto in the literal sense, and I didn't specify well enough... but I meant getting OD comically crafty with something when you don't have what's usually used, like the hands free phone with the rubber band around the head and the guy with the broken XBox Live headset.

But no one complains when your post gets this many replies 

I actually like reading them.

Used a recycle bin as a basketball hoop.

Used monkey bars as a basketball hoop, we had the whole neighborhood playing on it too. Dunk contests and everything

(

at them taking down the rims at the closest court we had)

We'd play basketball, where we'd have to shoot the ball like normal and hit a certain spot right between the slanted portion.
We'd have serious games. So serious, arguments and fights would break out when someone claimed your shot didn't count, of course there was no way for sure.
It got even more hilarious when our older brothers and their friends would play with us, 18-20 year olds, playing arguing about imaginary hoop basketball

.

Being a kid was awesome.

   Same hear...around my way we had a court but the city took the rims down due to too much trouble going on there...so we just used to shoot at little metal piece that used to hold the rims up, had the whole hood out playing heated games...people calling next and all that

paying a crackhead to steal people electricity and cable from the converter and power lines.

When I was younger we used a milk crate and cut out the bottom and made it a basketball hoop.

Lol Take the Long Island rail road and hide in the bathroom till we reached our stop and ran off the train.

The sugar water and corn beef and bread diet as a kid sheesh I hated that $%@!.

When I was a kid and had no glue around, my grandmother would make me use white rice.

Back in 4th Grade my sister had the OG Cherry 14's and I use to sneak them to school and change on the bus stop, then on the way home change back to my kicks. lol

Im black so I cant think of calling anything I do ghetto, I just call it natural.lol


I used Brown sugar for Kool Aid a couple times, also powered sugar. I also thought of using syrup b4 but never attempted.

I used a frying pan to bake a cake once.

I also use random objects as a fly swatter.
