1) “ How did slap ass become a wide spread activity throughout sports?”Īss slapping is very open to interpretation. However, their introduction of such a weird activity raises brows, curiosity, and leaves us with questions about the activity as a whole. Though most commonly displayed on the football field, ass slapping is a widespread activity done across all sports from the high school level to the pros. The “slapper” is trying to let the “ slapped” know that he saw the performance, thought it was excellent, and wants to see more of it. Looking deeper into this phenomenon, slap ass in the sports world is similar to a high five or a handshake. So as we can see, the writers of this particular sketch aimed to make two things clear: Ass slapping goes on in sports and there’s a lot of it. What he did embodied brotherhood, sportsmanship, and unity all in one swift motion: he slapped me on the ass, and thinking back on it, I embraced it. The team captain then showed how pleased he was with my performance when he did something that caught me totally off guard.
The team crowded around me as I returned to our side of the gym, where I was giving out high fives and waving to my many fans in the crowd (my mom and sister). I felt as though I was at the apex of my performance as a high school wrestler. Come my seventh match, I wasn’t sure if I had improved overnight or if my opponent was having an off day, but I won. A pattern was really created for my first (and last) season, and I had gotten to my seventh match without a single win. Fifth match, loss AND I got slammed so harshly onto the mat that my neck crunched into my body as though I was an accordion. Needless to say, I thought that I would make a big splash because I had a unique physique and an unquestionable heart.įirst match, loss. My weight class was 170, I was fairly limber, and what I lacked in strength I made up for in technique. I went to practice everyday, put in the work, and went home.
In 9th grade, I was on the wrestling team for one season. “Come on, let’s get some Slap Ass over here”
