Bige
Bige : Keményfahengerke két végén hegyesre faragva. Ép.
Hardwood bat (kámpa) for the old folk game called 'bigézés', i.e. Tip-cat (also called cat, cat and dog, one-a-cat or piggy) is a pastime which consists of tapping a short billet of wood (usually no more than 3–6 inches) with a larger stick (similar to a baseball bat or broom handle); the shorter piece is tapered or sharpened on both ends so that it can be "tipped up" into the air when struck by the larger, at which point the player attempts to swing or hit it a distance with the larger stick while it is still in the air (similar to swinging at a pitch in baseball or cricket, etc.). Undamaged bat from Mezőkövesd, from 1969.
