And a lot of these I had no idea were things only in New York City until I moved to Ohio and had to explain what stoop ball was. Stoop Ball: Before mom screams out the window that "dinner is ready," your friends come over to hang out on the stoop. When staring at girls becomes tedious, neighborhood kids throw a ball to bounce off the stoop in order to catch it on the fly or off the bounce. Stoop ball is nearly indigenous to Brooklyn. Legendary Dodger and Baseball Hall of Famer, Sandy Koufax, formed his love for the sport playing the game as a kid in Bensonhurst. Marv Albert, Brighton Beach native who became "the voice of the New York Knicks," had a stoop built in front of his suburban home because he missed the game.
