    Cabbage Stump night Two old men that live in the Faythe do be waiting for the boys to around and when they do they throw water on the boys.
    The next night is called "Dip Night"
    We place a tub of water in the middle of the floor and then we throw nuts and apples and sometimes money into the water and in turn we try to catch them with our teeth.
    Then we play.
