Grapevine Chronicles (M and F)
Posted: Mon Oct 22, 2018 11:52 am
Here’s a rather harebrained idea. Over the past couple of weeks, I have been compiling stories of tie-up games from people I know. Most of the people surveyed were from my place of work. Others were just from my circle of friends.
Names have been changed for privacy.
Doug (late 40s-early 50s): Cops and robbers/cowboys and Indians with the neighborhood boys. They took turns tying each other up.
Tom (mid 40s): Tied up as a prank in middle school.
Martha (late 40s?): Tied her little sister to a chair.
Heather: (early 30s): A friend of hers got good grades in middle school, so she and her friends left the girl tied up in the backyard. She couldn’t get out so they untied her after a while.
Cassie: (early-mid 20s). She had quite a few. She tied up a bunch of her friends in school, was tied up herself with duct tape by a college boyfriend, put in handcuffs (didn’t say why), Tied up with zipties to see if she could escape (she could), and tried to tie up her babysitter with a blanket. I hope she was gagged because she's a chatterbox.
Debbie (40s?): Does having her ankles wrapped in a leash by her dog count?
Mark (30s?): Duct taped to pole by brothers.
Nick (late 20s): Uncle was a cop who put him in handcuffs to show him what it was like.
Hannah (mid 20s): Tied to a chair with her scarf by a male friend in her college cafeteria. Successfully escaped.
Roderick (late 20s): Was wrapped in tape and shut in a locker by his field hockey team. His mouth was taped. Helped do the same to another boy.
Angie (30s): Was tied up playing a game with some kids she babysat. She got out. Was tied to a fence on the playground with a jumprope by a boy in her class. A teacher had to untie her.
Michelle (late 20s): Duct taped by members of her lacrosse team in college. Couldn’t escape. Was also duct taped on her birthday by her uncle.
David (20s): A bunch of people on his high school cross country team, mostly girls but a few guys, got tied up with duct tape during a team party. None escaped.
Pete (early 40s?): Tied up his brother with neighborhood friends as a mean-spirited joke. Left him tied up but he eventually escaped. Got in a lot of trouble with his parents.
Pauline (late 30s): Tied up for a school play.
Kesia (mid-20s) Loosely tied with a scarf by family when she was a little girl.
If anyone else wants to do this, I’d love to find out what you hear. It’s easiest if you ask friends.
