Pillow gloves, giant boxing gloves. These were popular for kids back in the 70's when people were allowed to hit each other. Of course now, any physical contact is forbidden because the kids need to grow up like snowflakes with allergies to everything.
At one time, boxing was quite popular. Knocking someone out was an accomplishment, not a sin that you would be canceled for.
OH, well, in the immortal words of Archie Bunker, "Those were the days".
