    I would like to see this turn into a prison sport here in the US. Preferably with opposing gangs.

    There should be a prison league for this, it’d easily have more fans than soccer

    I recommend skipping to 37:10 and watching the fat guy’s facial expressions.

    This looks a lot like the bar district when UK and Louisville play in basketball.

    This is why I sometimes regret American culture not dating back to the Middle Ages. If Columbus would’ve arrived a bit sooner, we’d already have come up with something much cooler. Ohh, and btw: Italy. NF.

    The game starts when the Pallaio throws the ball towards the center line, followed by a small cannon firing; the shot announces the beginning of the contest.

    From this moment on, the players try by any means necessary to get the ball into the opponents’ goal also called caccia. The teams change sides with every caccia scored. It’s important to shoot with precision, because every time a player misses the opposing team is awarded with half a caccia. The game ends after 50 minutes and the team which scored the most cacce wins.

    The winning team receives a Chianina Cow.

    Having cannons announce the start of the game and winning a cow..these crazy italians.
