It is a game that involves "hacking", or kicking up a small, usually hand sewn "hacky sack". The idea is to keep the "hack" going. Well, this would seem sorta simple, but the catch is that slight muscle movements mess up the hack.

I have been playing alot this year, its a good way to spend my lunch hour with friends. We have alot of laughs out of the immaturity of how we play. This sport is possibly the most fun, because, its VERY cheap to play, it can be played from 2 minutes to 2 hours, and when you hack in a circle, you have to really connect with your playing partners.

The only real things you need are a decent pair of flatter shoes, something like the idealistic Puma's, or Adidas. It helps to have shorts on :D Also, a hacky sack is necesary. This is what I will tell you is the most important. You want a quality hack, or something that will work good enough for hacking. I found a very good deal today, for cheaper hacky sacks. Here is the link. Hacky Sack 1

Now, for something better, I recommend a pellet filled sack from this site. More stiches give better control, but they are also a bit more expensive. However, any of the sacks from Flying clipper are supposedly top quality, which is believable. Here is their selection of good pellet sacks Pellet Hacky sacks

So yea, I hope you guys get a hacky sack and you guys hack. Its a really fun way to spend time with friends, or by yourself when you are bored.

No, I don't think I never find myself in a situation where I could play hacky sack and I wouldn't want to even if I did.

I dont think hacking is limited to a group, but to an individual.

I used to with friends at school many years ago. But then some guys in the group decided it was more fun to grab the thing out of mid-air and whip it at other people's crotches. Soon after that nobody brought a hackey sack anymore.

Used to play it 2 years ago. I got pretty good at it too. I could do the clipper, around the world, pendulum, and a bunch of other crazy **** and string it all together. At that point my friends and I just hit a wall where we couldn't get any better without having to actually get really fit.

It may not have been like that for you but it was for me. They would always stand outside the lunchroom everyday and play. And I didn't mean I found it dumb because they play it. I've always found it dumb no matter who plays it.

I used to hack often a few years back in 10th grade, mostly during lunch or break from Physics class.
