- They had a boxing ring for boxing
- Grog Tents which the miners got their beer from
- They had dancing and music all the time
- At night they would fire weopons for no reason just to have fun
They also had a few sports. Not the sports we have today. They would make them up. They played: Kangaroo Shooting and Possum Hunting. Those two were very common. They also had other events like dancing.
Overall life was very difficult for the miners and they all loved a good game.

Are there any records of people being killed during these games?

ummm... i dont really know. There may be a few deaths from alcohol poioning or people accidently getting shot by the weopons but other than that i have no idea.
Were the grog tents and the ritual of firing weapons legal?
What further problems did these activities cause for the miners?
nice work timur

i think the grog tents were legal but the firing of weopons probably was illegal. I think that is why they did it in the night.
What was the boxing ring made out of? And why did they shoot guns in the air for no reason?
