"The bongo board was one of the things that we did back then for skiing, to get balance and agility. It was a round, six-inch diameter, maple 'ball' if you will, and a board sits on top of it. And you jump on top of it and balance. We all bought them, and we had contests, who could stay up the longest, who could eat lunch on the bongo board. I mean it was just one of those crazy things that you did to pass the time between classes. And everybody did it. You could not go in the cafeteria and not be coaxed into hopping onto a bongo board."
