Well RG, the one I remember that HURT the most was in the 9th grade.

I was in the boys' gym class and we were swimming that particular day in school. Our school had a pool. Anyway, we were playing a game of water polo and I happened to dunk this really obnoxious cocky punk 7th grader. The gym coach did not see the humor in that at all.

I had to get out of the pool and this gym coach made me grab my ankles and gave me one really hard lash with his whistle strap over my wet swim trunks. And I'm telling you, that freakin' hurt! LOL. This was the 70s in Oklahoma and they still did stuff like that.

The usual procedure was to send you to the office, where the school principal, or counselor, or whoever gave you about 3 swats with a wooden paddle over your pants.
