FoxTrot by Bill Amend for February 18, 2024

A game for snowflakes.

Get a hose and freeze it you might brake your toes but at least its a real game

Gonna have to do penalty kicks.

Yeah, you’re evenly matched. That must be it.

I’m more impressed by the snow goals.

Today’s classic FoxTrot Sunday strip:

Use a football (OMG).

Since a lot of Soccer games end in a 0-0 tie, this one’s pretty average.

As does any soccer game.

they don’t know how to kick, you aren’t supposed to go into it with your toes, you’re supposed to kick it with the side of your foot. This prevents you from hurting your toes and affords you more control of which way the ball goes

At least they are outside having fun.

nil-nil

Isn’t anybody going to leave a comment about the two high-rise apartment buildings? What? They’re the goals? Uh, and how did they manage to make those snow nets?

2 kids having fun outdoors, using their imaginations. no phones, tablets, or video games. leave them alone!

Saudia Arabia doesn’t want either one of those guys

I think physicists would love to know how they make their snow goal nets.

To my knowledge, neither has any athletic ability, and bomb badly, in school sports, so this, at least, deludes them into thinking they have at least a modicum of ability.

This reminds me of the fun we have throwing snowballs for our dog. :-D He likes to chase balls across the ground and grab them, but snowballs of course just vanish into the snowpack and he gets very confused. It’s adorable.

Just like real soccer!

Dude, YOU CANNOT KICK A SNOWBALL
