[edit] Hit the sticks

I prod'd this a day or two ago, and an anonymous user removed it today without comment. The term definitely strikes me as a neologism--it doesn't appear to pass the Google test (44 unique Ghits for '"hit the stick" video games'), and the "history" of it as described by the article strikes me as unlikely, especially considering the lack of references. -- H·G (^words/_works) 06:27, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. In all my years of playing video games, if someone said "lets hit the sticks" I'd smack them with a belt sander. WP:NEO. SynergeticMaggot 07:24, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • I'm completely with you on that one- and I would love to see it. For the love of god, delete! -- Kicking222 12:21, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
