9: Snowball Fights
With twenety-four days in the traditional advent calendar I’ve decided to write three groups of eight, and the second group is outdoor games and pastimes.
Snowball Fights: Fight with snowballs. Possibly in teams with rules, possibly not.
“I’ve never actually been in a snowball fight.”
“Really?”
“I don’t even know the rules. Is there like a point system or is it... to the death?”
Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs
Snowballs are the classic improvised ranged weapon in a winter scene. Generally suggesting a lighthearted conflict, so no hard packing ice or anything like that. If someone actually hurts somebody, This Just Got Serious.

Although as this Lumiere film from 1897 shows, if you come by on a bicycle all bets are off. |
Snowballs are also a good choice for fighting fire elementals. See how good your chance is in Hell.
