Eton Wall Game (1921)

[moonkeele]

@APerson1417 Ill-educated? I've a BSc and MSc so that's not true. Poverty and mediocrity?? No I have well paid employmet thank you. Lazy and stupid? Nope, wrong again. Low class? I don't own the means of production, but that's more of condemnation of those who do than of me. Disgusting filth? I don't go around flaunting inherited wealth and privillage, assuming I'm inherently better than everyone else. So sorry mate, you've just shown your own ignorence. Vive La Revolucion !!

[APerson1417]

@moonkeele Whatever degree you might have from whichever university (and I'm willing to bet it's not a good one, considering the spelling and grammar of that response) that doesn't change the fact that you made a horribly tasteless joke about a tragic death. Merely contradicting me by saying: 'you're wrong' doesn't actually prove anything; you're actions reveal you as a complete scumbag. One day, someone close to you will die and I'm willing to bet you won't want other people to joke about it.

[moonkeele]

I'd like to see the inbred upperclass twats playing against a team of polar bears.

[APerson1417]

@moonkeele What exactly do you want to achieve by posting that? You are just validating anyone who went to private school calling you a disgusting, low-class piece of filth. If you find yourself amusing, you are sadly mistaken. Revolting, ill-educated people such as yourself deserve the life of poverty and mediocrity which your state education has undoubtedly given you, and which you have certainly been too lazy and generally stupid to work your way out of.

Long ago, one year, they used Percy Shelley--the future poet--as the ball. Eton could be rough in those days.

[movement26]

It is amazing the effect a wall has on mankind........The Eton mob like to play in front of it.....The Jews like to pray to it.......The Chinese like a big one.....The Berliners like to tear one down.......and Pink Floyd like to sing about it.........Yes I know I missed Chuchill, Jericho and Hadrian but I must get back to buiding my own.

[movement26]

@movement26 Sorry......Building my own.

[yaknbo]

@movement26 I think Churchill went to Harrow. 

[movement26]

@yaknbo I know Churchill went to Harrow, but my reference was his wall building hobby. He was a skilled bricklayer.

[yaknbo]

@movement26 Ahh, yes. The wall at Checquers (sp?).

[yaknbo]

Respond to this video... Very good. They protect us and exclude us. Good ones make good neighbors and good ones protect you from bad neighbors.

[Pepper6464]

So the point of this game is which ever team dry humps the other team the hardest against a wall wins?

[MySerpentine]

LOL Crazy game

[rob101193]

Haha person below made me LOL

[MrAlohashirt]

It's almost certain they went back to the dorm after this game and buggered each other senseless.

[zzzed55]

Eton chaps are quite sociable and would welcome a visitor to join in

not so at Harrow,you have to have a intrusive interview ,however this is carried out by the local RC priest so everything is above board

at Winchester the head has tried to ban dorm sports,this is because the prefects will insist on bringing a goat into proceedings

Stowe motto "incest is good ol family fun" means that you can only take part if you are related

[oagih90aa]

@MrAlohashirt i lol'ed at your comment. keep up the good work.

[ralphcraddock]

ok so you want to be a polotician,

captain of industry,banker,playboy ect.

then, you have to learn how to play this game well.

[HernesGhost]

Is the wall game still played? it seems so long ago.

[vaudevilleUK]

@HernesGhost Yes, it is

[JonnyInfinite]

Masonic handshake at 0:07?

[GanEdenAustralia]

League is the best form of rugby.

[mcpug10]

I say chaps what a rum time your having, looks like jolly good fun and all that.

Well ta ta for now What

[IsCumaFut2]

interesting sport, it reminds me of a continuous maul and teh object is to push teh team to the other end is it? how do you score?

[spiritof57]

Young man (after seeing Churchill leave the bathroom without washing his hands): At Eton they taught us to wash our hands after using the toilet. Churchill: At Harrow they taught us not to piss on our hands.

[Mirozenx]

what is the objective of this game?

[gkavner]

It can't be stressed enough how important these games were as the progenitor of all the modern football codes today. One day I plan to witness this, the Ashourne Shrove game and Calcio in Venice. Priceless.

[KX76]

Harrow cricket kit's pretty dire.

[KX76]

Eton wall game - cool stuff. Dwyle flunking's better though.

[KX76]

32Wallace. I went to a state school and know the difference between your and you're.

[smegma7284]

The guy who said you should learn to spell correctly spelled superior wrong. I went to a state school. I learned how to spell better than him for free :-)

[martpast1]

@smegma7284 yehu, u al shud realy se whot iz reall spellung. u cannt du it likes for a free

[IlRezzonico]

@smegma7284 you mean "wrongly" (the adverb), back to state school with you old chap!

[fernandotorresr]

Simple

Eton COLLEGE: the best, world renowned, difficult to gain entry

Harrow SCHOOL: good, fairly well known, easy to get in

[smoochym]

Both are terrible schools compared to the school of life. You've missed out...

[32wallace]

i hope thats a joke else your an idiot 'school of life' your such a dick head

[smoochym]

No, whats stupid, is coming from an ultra sheltered background and thinking you actually have a clue about how the world functions.

[32wallace]

and what is your point are you insinuating i am from a sheltered background? If you are then that is just a total guess isn't it. Also education is vital. and knowing how the world works and being educated are not mutually exclusive in fact education is a way of gaining knowledge. Your so clearly a loser reply if you like i will not read it or reply

[Terry666Craig]

haha I know this game from J. V. Hartt's book 'Captain Hook'

xp

[mikemosocw]

You should learn to spell and express yourself correctly! I, myself boarded at Harrow, A far superiour school.

[chuckmanbob]

if that is ineed true then explain to me why if someone fails the eton test then their second choice is invairiably harrow, which is much easier to get into. also harrow for some reason finds it nescecary to import players to play at lords, the only way you can win is cheat. when we were participating in the exam table system, eton beat harrow every time, without fail.

[chuckmanbob]

we were founded by the king, you were founded by a farmer.

also if i were to go to a foreign country how many of the people i met would have heard of eton, and then how many would have heard of harrow.

"THe best thinbg about harrow is that on a good day one can see Eton" Sir Winston Churchill, one of the greatest britons of all time who DESPISED harrow.

harrow is the second or third choice of school behind eton.

[mikemosocw]

You can hardly expect pupils to actually like their school! Churchill, did indeed attend Harrow, so what is your argument? that he despised Harrow?

I am not too convinced you attended Eton, your grammar is quite appalling.can you prove it? because your argument is childish and puerile.

[renzyq19]

its not as dumb as he makes it out to be - wikipedia
