Kids will be kids, but boy can it be aggravating sometimes!

They play practical jokes on each other. (Why do they call them practical? The jokes usually aren’t.)

Case in point: I remember when a friend had her Volkswagen Beetle picked up and wedged sideways into a spot where there was no way she could drive it out. It was great fun for the jokers, but not so much for the jokee.

Likewise when at my first job (fast food); the bathroom key was attached to a great big piece of 2 x 4 lumber – the idea being no one could lose it. Well, it didn’t prevent the jokers from hiding it deep in the freezer or storage room behind boxes of product. Again, funny for them, but no one else. (Especially when they left after their shift without recovering the key.)

Goalrilla Goal owners – thwart the jokesters

Parents sometimes have the opportunity to proactively prevent the family (and their friends) jokesters from plying their hi-jinks. And we can help here at the Basketball Goal Store.

The Goalrilla Basketball Goals we offer are adjustable from 7.5 feet to 10 feet – which is a great thing for families. Even better, the cranks for the height actuators are removable and can be stored in the garage or house to prevent damage by vandals (or (not intending to do damage) jokesters).

But the awesome thing about shopping at the Basketball Goal Store is that extra actuator handles and pins can be purchased separately as an accessory.

Thwart those funny guys (and gals)! The look on their faces will be priceless when Mom or Dad just shrug when confronted with the “The crank’s gone!!!” cries.

It’s always a shock to kids when they get “outsmarted” by the adults. (But don’t we love it?) And pulling out the extra handle and pin just deflates their funny bubble!

Even if you don’t have the extra set hidden away, a replacement can be on its way to you with a quick call to the Basketball Goal Store at (800) 689-0281.
