I remember playing Padiddle, but that reminds me of another game we played as young boys. Two boys would be walking along the street. Whenever one of them spotted a discarded Camel cigarette pack, he would pick it up and challenge the other boy, "Hits or cracks?" On the inside of the cigarette pack there was always a code consisting of capital H or C followed by a single-digit number. If the answer given was hits, and the code read, say, H3, the one who answered hit the other boy three times on the upper arm. If he guessed wrong, he received the hits or cracks. I have no idea how widespread this game was, or if indeed our group of young ruffians invented it. Somehow there seemed to be plenty of Camel packs to be found in those days.
