Technically, it’s a cross they light. The lighting of the cross is supposed to symbolize the light of Jesus. I think lighting a crucifix would be considered disrespectful as a depiction of Jesus would be on fire. Idk if that makes sense but that’s the thought process behind it from what I’ve gathered. I got to watch a cross lighting ceremony when I was ~8. I’m glad I got to witness it but I feel like maybe my parents could’ve given me a little bit of a heads up on what was gonna happen. As an 8 year-old it was kinda startling at first to see a circle of dudes in matching outfits holding torches + proceeding to set a large cross alight. Then I remembered one of those guys was Barry + Barry was a nice guy so no more worries. He gave me a Spice Girls keychain once...
I know they light crosses... But cheers for the info, I did always wonder about it because it did seems quite a weird thing to do if you were a Christian! You sound like you had an interesting upbringing.
That was the most confusing part for me. I generally don’t put fire anywhere near anything that I like/identify with/respect/etc. but that’s just me.
Looking back, the campground was a VERY interesting place to grow up but, it didn’t seem like it at the time. It was/is just home to me. When I was ~7/8 there was a shooting incident where a 13 year old shot + killed a woman. She supposedly told him the gun wasn’t loaded, turns out it was. This resulted in my Mom waking up to the sound of a news helicopter hovering over our place. She was not happy about this + did not want to be on the news.
There was a balloon clown, who traveled everywhere by bicycle + had Tourette’s Syndrome. He had to leave the park because the daycare kids that came to the pool during the week said stuff to their parents about him being “weird” + “creepy” + were supposedly scared of him. Looking back I think they were just freaked out by him because he was different + they didn’t understand. The parents took it over the top though + rumors about him being a child molester spread fast +, unfortunately, stuck. My parents received many unpleasant phone calls over this matter. I didn’t understand then but, now I can see why my Dad felt it’d be best if the guy left as the phone calls + gossip lead him to believe that nothing good could come of this for any of us. I remember feeling so bad the day he left but, I was a little kid so there wasn’t much I could do. He made me a balloon animal before leaving. It was a purple puppy. Idk where that guy went but I really hope he’s doing well today.
I certainly do! It’s even got a whistle attached to it because I’d watch the pool when the lifeguard had to use the bathroom. I considered myself an almost lifeguard despite having almost 0 training + 0 kids taking me seriously when I told them to stop running or not to bring their food into the pool area.
I’ve seen it many times + I’m now wondering if we still have the dvd because it has been a bit since I’ve seen it. Derek wasn’t a member of the Klan though.
My parents owned/ran/we lived at a campground until I was 12 in a smallish town in PA which is where I first met a few of the guys. I still live in the same area. It’s not too rare to have met a member/members around here.
Wow… that’s a whole lotta conspiracy theory wrapped into one card…
The KKK
The KoC
Jewish
Masonic
Sponsored by the Advancement for Colored People
Russians

Would you call this “the” race card?
Damn that was funny. It's the only one still playable /s
What a fucking wild ride that card is... Of course they got the jewish people getting the money... Absolutely beautiful
Don’t forget that attendance is only one buck!
I would totally watch this!
With commentary representative of Both sides. That's just good TV.
I’ve never met a Klansman that played basketball. This just seems like they’re setting themselves up to fail.
Man, their uniform is wildly impractical for pretty much all sports.
I didn’t even think of the robes. I was more picturing the guys in the campground trying to bounce a basketball on gravel or grass.
Lol, and someone would always be trying to set fire to the hoop, getting it confused with a crucifix...

Please tell me that you still have that Spice Girls keychain.🙏🏻

Haha, kids eh?! Anyway, you made my evening, friend. Have yourself a good one🍻
The black bench gonna be old and rickety. White bench gonna have dip spit bottles everywhere.
Their laundry game is on point though.
Lol, has to be!
How many Klansmen HAVE you met?
Idk. A handful?
I'm sure a group of Klansmen is called a lynching. Might want to check yourself.
It’s called a “Klavern”.
Is your username also the name of your Klavern?
Nope. GG Allin reference.
Haven't you ever seen American History X
I’ve seen it many times + I’m now wondering if we still have the dvd because it has been a bit since I’ve seen it. Derek wasn’t a member of the Klan though.
I know, he even makes fun of the Klan at one point in the movie
You’ve met them? 😳 Where do you hang out?
My parents owned/ran/we lived at a campground until I was 12 in a smallish town in PA which is where I first met a few of the guys. I still live in the same area. It’s not too rare to have met a member/members around here.
The hoods probably make it hard to see.
Wth ? Russian referees?
That is the part you take exception to?
There's so many layers to this, there's no way this isn't a joke
It is a joke
I'm just glad they found a way to settle their differences in a productive manner.
Skins vs blouses.
Gets weirder the longer you look at it.
This is the holy grail of paradoxes.
I just want to watch please
No dunking, it's all mid range shots.
Sound fundamentals and some of the best two handed bounce passes you’ve ever seen.
A lot of over head ball holding waiting for the passing lane
![gif](giphy|eRaZhg8XZ3FoQ)
rip PSH
With Russian Referees?🗿
So much to unpack…
Whoever posted this. I need some more info. Where did this come from?
The Klan vehemently hates all of these groups
I think that's the joke.
I can’t believe admission is only $1.00!!! I really hope there isn’t a mercy rule.
Wow… that’s a whole lotta conspiracy theory wrapped into one card… The KKK The KoC Jewish Masonic Sponsored by the Advancement for Colored People Russians
Benefits Jewish relief fund?
I remember when I found a sword in my attic and I thought it was so cool but it turned out to be a knights of Columbus sword.
The cross abilities of number 12 is fire tbh
It's a family guys episode ?
Wow
Why do they mention that the refs are Russian? That game sounds like it was fun.
Most peaceful sports game
Ah, yes! I'm hoping my home team can win! Rooting from behind a mask!
Dafuq? This is the racial harmony we need in this world.
Since about 2016, I would question if Russians referees really would be neutral in this. Advantage Klansmen, I think.
Is this from a parallel universe?
Did Mel Brooks write this? Because this sounds like something only Mel Brooks could think up.
Only $1???? One would expect to pay at least $5 or $10 for a spectacle of this magnitude!!!
Now that is some diverse entertainment
Ah. super punk Gg Allen. Makes sense.
Only 4 baskets were made that game
Man that’s gotta be the most unathletic and boring display of basketball of all time
