We did those too. I don't think we had a name for it.

I can't imagine doing any of that stuff now. I don't even think those types of bars are still around.

There's a website discussed in these parts recently that cries out for pictures.

As of 3 years ago when I worked at an elementary school, they had them, and kids still do all the tricks you guys are talking about.

Actually, one thing that amazes me in this day and age is that Muni still allows people to hang off the sides of cable cars in San Francisco. I'm sure every once in a while someone must fall off or get dinged by a passing car.
