Is it sport related?

No. Of course someone could use it for sport, but as far as I know the sport I am thinking about uses a different, but simular, item.

Is it related to sports or games?

EDIT: Hi, Chris. I'd better work on my timing.

It may be used in games but be careful. The type of games these are used in are very serious games.

Way off, but heading in the right direction.

Shampoo sounds like an unfortunate name for a hair product.
You're a ghost driving a meat-coated skeleton made from stardust, riding a rock, hurtling through space. Fear Nothing!

Direction = upwards?

Something to do with poker, like a shoe thingy for holding the deck?

No. Simply saying the word "pistol" is heading in the right direction. This item is a weapon.

Was this kind of weapon invented so long ago that its origin is unknown?

I think I know what it is. I'm guessing that once you activate it you have a short amount of time to get rid of it?

It is one of those items where its history states "The earliest mention of . . ."

No. Nothing like a hand grenade. I can assure you I don't have one of those laying around my house. :eek:
