In what has become an annual rite of spring in West Roxbury, a concerned citizen has complained to the city about the hopscotch board at Draper Playground on Washington Street:
Hopscotch painted wrong, too big and stops at 7.

Omg Boston.
Love you Boston. Never change. EVER.
Blame it
On the
Mad
Men
"Hopping mad"
Love it!
She is totally right!
Would people thin it's OK if they made a football field that's 90 yards, or a baseball diamond without 3rd base?
What about a Canadian football field?
Compare to those, football fields in the US are 90 yards.
I'm conflicted on this. Yes, hopscotch tends to be a game of 10 squares, but was there a space constriction they had to work around? However, since I don't think there are organized hopscotch leagues, I don't see how the comparison is valid.

Yeah, West Roxbury- It's where privilaged white families with long standing political connections reside.
Do you also want the city of Boston to wipe the dust off all the stop signs in W.Roxbury as well.
