A funny but dangerous experience In my childhood, I was continuously pushing to play whatever sport possible every time but this led me to face a very unusual event. In particular, my family and I were visiting my grandparents in a little town not so far from Turin and we decided to spend one day on a lovely hill quite close to where they live. I easily got bored since I wasn't playing with anyone and that's why I pushed my grandfather to play bowls with me since he loved that sport. We luckily found a bowls ground where we were spending the day and therefore we started playing but it wasn't so much after we started that I got bored again since he was too good for me. I suddenly looked up above me and I saw a wire with some flags around it because that was the day of a local festivity and everything was decorated in that way. I don't know exactly the reason, probably because I loved football, I decided to hurl the bowl I had in my hand up around the wire and that's actually what I did but the main problem was that I didn't move from where I was standing so that the bowl fell in front of my head. After few seconds, a huge bruise was present in my head just above my eyes and both my parents and grandparents were quite shocked and worried. Fortunately, after 4 days and a lot of ice the bruise disappeared from my head, making this event a funny one. Since then I have learned to not kick any bowl with my head again.
