France Petanque
A Parisian tosses a metal ball as he plays the game of petanque among his friends in Paris, Saturday, Aug. 7, 2010. A form of lawn bowling, petanque is a 100-year-old French sport usually associated with the pastis-sozzled old men of provinces. But a curious thing is happening. From the cool canal quays of Paris to the heart of celebrity-strewn Saint Tropez, petanque has become the height of hipster fashion. (AP Photo/Michel Euler)
