When I was still in elementary school, there was this big (permanent) chalk drawing of the United States on the pavement near the playground.
During recess when I was in the 1st and 2nd grade, I repeatedly jumped on the drawing. I believed that if I stepped on our state, a giant foot would fly down from the sky and squash everybody on the playground. I was so confused when it didn't happen. Haha.
