A mixture of petanque and firecrackers. Colombians play this game in bars and on professional sports grounds. At the end of the track at an angle of 45 degrees, a board about a meter by a meter is installed, covered with clay. Several triangular envelopes with gunpowder are placed on the board. Players take turns throwing metal discs at the board from a distance of 18 meters, trying to hit the envelope. If everything worked out, there will be an explosion, like from a firecracker. For half an hour of throws, I blew up, it seems, a couple of charges.
