And if you did what class grade/year would it had happened? What decade (if your comfortable sharing)?

I am wondering how many people actually did this and from what locations/ages/years it would have happened. For my education (American elementary-college years 2000’s-2010’s) I never had to do that. I feel like I had to be common enough that it is referenced in movies and tv shows.

No, I always thought it seemed stupidly dangerous. What happens if a kid falls and cracks their noggin. seems like an unnecessary liability

This was my thought when I first heard of it. My school wouldn’t let us on the playground when it was wet because we might slip on the monkey bars haha
