Do people still roll eggs down a hill?

When your kids were little I used to enjoy boiling eggs... letting them cool and painting them on the Saturday night.. Take the kids to a local big hill on the Sunday morning for them to roll down the hill... The local big birds would sweep down and take the busted ones... anybody else?

I used to paint eggs with my kids but never heard of rolling them down a hill. It sounds like something they would of enjoyed though

Never heard of this before. Going to boil some eggs and let them paint them. Then bring them to the biggest hill I can find tomorrow. Then will have so much fun doing this
