Can’t say I played his rules, but pretty sure we did throw baseballs and such on the roof with a rule you had to catch it, or something.
I played "roofball" on a regular basis until my dad yelled at me about knocking the asphalt off the shingles. A short time later, I was forced to play "wallball". i.e. I was grounded to my room because I didn't listen.Can’t say I played his rules, but pretty sure we did throw baseballs and such on the roof with a rule you had to catch it, or something.
Sad day when wallball is also banned. This dude’s mom just gave up though, now look at how successful his league is.I played "roofball" on a regular basis until my dad yelled at me about knocking the asphalt off the shingles.

We did this with like a kickball but combined it with the 500 game and beating the crap out of each other.
Even better play it on a building where the roof line is about 20 feet off the ground so you don't see the ball until it is free falling off of the roof and you have 2-3 seconds to get there and catch it.Yes, indeed. That was a great version. We played dual-500. Half of us were on one side of the house and half were on the other. No rules. Just try to catch the ball or prevent others from catching it. It was awesome not being able to see the ball until it is over the ridge of the roof.
My cousins and I did this too but had a swing set by their house. The person up for the kick had to kick the ball while swinging then jump off and run the bases. Epic and led to many fights but some of my best memories as a kid.We did this with like a kickball but combined it with the 500 game and beating the crap out of each other.
