Racist grandparents
It Came From Planet Aylia says: "My husband's mad Auntie Joan accused the man seven doors down of stealing her milk as he was the first black neighbour she had. She doesn't even get her milk delivered." Tell us about casual racism from oldies.
Thanks to Brayn Dedd who suggested this too

Ten Pin Bowling
My Grandad (who was a Sailor) used to tell me about a time he went ten pin bowling in New York back in the 50's.
His favourite part of the story was that back then, there was no machinery to re-stack the pins.
Instead it was a "little black fella" who would run out between throws and manually stack them.
My Grandad used to say how you have never seen anyone do it as fast and the game of bowling came second place to the game of "So who can hit the black kid with the bowling ball before he can stack the pins"
They never managed to hit him thankfully, just too damn fast.
