We had one like that at my grade school. Quite a bit Taller, and the hump wasnt quite as big but it had a bar that went up over the top you could jump UP then swing down and LAUNCH yourself down the slide!    spinal/tailbone injuries were pretty common.  theN there was the huge jungle gym with the rough cement pilings sticking up 6-8" out of the sand from being lifted by frost over time.  what could go wrong 🤣

Couple of pretty good ball players right there. 

Kid I went to school with (Gary Wayne) played for the twins in that era. He said Hrbek and Kirby Pucket were his favorite teammates, just really cool guys.

That's cool! I remember him. Pretty good pitcher.

Those were some fun years as a Twins fan. :bc:

He was throwing knee buckling curves and 90 mph fastball at 12-13 years old. We used to beg him to slow it down so we at least had a chance!

You just knew he’d make it to the bigs.
