You can't put lighttubes in the regular garbage because they contain mercury vapor and other hazardous materials, so big office buildings, factorys, universitys etc. keep their burnt out tubes and dispose of them once or twice a year (at least they do so over here). The factory where I'm currently working has two huge containers just for lighttubes. If you know someone who works at such a place you can propably work something out, if not just grab a phonebook and call random companies telling them you are from the "waste disposal management office" or bullshit like that. People are stupid, use this to your advantage.

Yea I tried going to the recycle place, they laughed pretty much, and I did get some skinny ones for work the other day, however. I did ask one guy at my video store and he was glad to because they have to pay to recycle them so.....I guess just with me luck then, lol.

haha back in the day when I backyard wrestled we had a buddy that had boxes of them so we used those, plus we use to buy them just for a few big spots. goonbob check out www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSDAcEIBJTU we use to have a deathmatch fed when i was in highschool back from 1998-2001. We got a DVD made too if you like what you see. |

surprised this hasnt turned into my backyard fed is the best. that usually happens in these situations than u have some asshole ruining everyones fun by calling them yard tards and saying they wish they died doing it. if kids wanna backyard wrestle i say do it. its not like u see fucking professional athletes going on record saying those kids tossing around the baseball are insults they kno nothing about the sport haha but now on to wat matters....
make a deal with someone. searching dumpsters are hard to do and annoying. like i used to have a deal with a guy at the local library hed call me wen he had like 6 boxes ready to go out and id go pick them up for him. so i got my light tubes and he saved himself the trouble of disposing them "in the right matter"

when i backyarded it was before the whole backyard thing blew up. When we started doing it we didnt even know anyone else did it.
The whole fun of it back then was getting the supplies with no money!
