I like this one.

thought the bit about lifting is not as the rules are written. Pre-gripping is no prohibited, so there must be air between the lifter's hands and the jumper's shorts. Lifting is also technically banned, but what you can do is progressively support, that is to say the jumper must provide the motion upwards, which can be supported by the lifters. Dwarf throwing (http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/blog/2011/sep/15/dwarf-throwing-england-rugby) is not permitted on pitch, and, if you are married into the royal family, it is apparently banned off pitch as well.

We played Rugby in grade school.  The rules were simple.  You took a soccer ball, carried it under one arm and used the other arm to punch the other kids.  At the same time all the other kids tried to beat the hell out of you.  There was running involved but to where was not important.  From was though.  You ran away from the other kids.  I don't know if we played that right.
