Well, I never thought I'd see anything about this on your channel, but very cool. I was the president of the pétanque club at my high school in Memphis, TN
This was loads of fun to watch. I play petanque here in Brazil. My neighbours' son lives in France and brought them a kit with the boules and the cochonnet . We play it every now and then. It's lots of fun.
Thanks a lot for that video. As a french, I greatly appreciate it. You scored really nice. I'm such a bad and inconsistent pétanque payer, but at least I learnt to lose with style :D. The most important is to have fun, and it looks like you had a lot.
Great fun ! I wasn't expecting that, lol...Glad you finally make it to Paris & in full form....Curious to see what you'll bring next from my town ! Santé & Bravo pour la médaille ! 👏
Bien joué, une débutante de haut niveau ! 👏👏 The video show how much fun you had, welcome to the most played summer game during hollydays in france . Enjoy yourself in Paris. You got a lovely accent while speaking french ;)
I used to play bocce downstairs in bar in St. Paul at Half Time Rec, and at bar whose name I've forgotten in the connected alley in downtown Minneapolis. Usually, the bet was for the next round. Good, glorious fun! I am glad you enjoyed yourself.
Great video, I'm glad you had a nice time on your trip to Paris. I played a lot of bocce at family gatherings growing up, which is a very similar game and it's a lot of fun. Incidentally, I studied French for a while a few years ago and even with the repeated coaching of a close friend who's from France, I could not get the hang of that r. lol
Great video. Looks like you had lots of fun. I'm french Canadian and this game reminds me of my grandfather. He used to play petanque with his friends in the park where he lived in a little rural town in the province of Quebec . Great memories, I miss him dearly.
🧄🧅🧄🧅🇲🇫🇲🇫 Bonjour Beth , so glad you & your bo had a nice time in Paris. Ah , ha , life experiences, absorbing other Cultures & realising that meeting people & dipping a toe in unknown waters can & usually does, result in memories that last a lifetime...... MAHOOSIVE ROAR!!!
So much fun Beth, you looked like you enjoyed it very much! I occasionally play English bowls but obviously there’s a huge difference, Pétanque doesn’t need anywhere special to play it, makes it much easier to get a game going! We should take this up in the UK, but no doubt it would get stopped because of the steel balls 🙄
Didn't play that game, but did play some more traditional Bowles games in the summer I spent in the village of Aloxe-Corton in Cote door in 72! The big game among the village youth was a match of spirited co-ed volleyball after work and before supper. The wine in that village is superb by the way, Le Corton and Le Charlemagne!
Ok that first throw was not a throw. You just dropped it!:):):) After that there was grace, perfect form, and finesse. You showed how scottish woman roll!! ( of course i mean play petanque!))!! Thx to Arnaud for the time to teach this game!! C'est tres bien!!
I knew it as 'boule', and I learned it in the south of France. The metal balls take me back, because American sets are colored and not quite the same. I remember playing with this very nice old gentleman in St. Maxime that my Swedish grandfather knew... I'm 6 or 8 or so, so it's just some guy my grandfather knows. But, it was Prince Bertil, uncle of the current king of Sweden, I later figured out.
You should travel to Provence to get a real feel for pétanque. The banter between the players is a big part of the attraction. When you understand what they mean when they ask "tu tires ou tu pointes," you have really become part of the pétanque community. p.s. The official drink is pastis.
That looked like so much fun!!! The game sure, but even more so, meeting and making friends with a super cool and presumably random local. Next time you're in Cincinnati we can play some cornhole! 🌽🕳
If every woman is as smart, fun, informative and cute as you are, live in Scotland, I need to move there. French Culture I am also fascinated by. Wonderful people. Great video as always.
Awesome video thank you! But, as someone who is currently learning the French language, isn't the Ultimate French Game any game where one side immediately surrenders to the other side? 🤭 I kid, I kid. 😜 ~Be Blessed
YOU'RE SO FUCKING CHARMING! 😂👍With that English accent when you're talking French! Your red hair! A pure English woman! Would you marry me? 😂👍KISSES FROM FRANCE MY BEAUTY! 😜🇫🇷🎸🤟😁👍😉
@@RoarRawr Looking hurts no one. As long as you don't stare or drool. 😁 Seriously though, your partner is a lucky guy (? - don't want to assume but statistically more likely to be a guy).

Tienes que venir a Chile , aquí también tenemos buenos vinos.

When he was staging the comeback, it was starting to feel like a classic hustle.

Merci! I never heard of this game❣️

The “piglet” or “jack” is the boccino or pallino with Bocce in Italy.
Awesome! My Italian nonno and nonna played a version of this called Boche.
bocce?
That fame fart has literally zero respect for italian culture and history. How do you awesome that?
Many many great memories of childhood holidays with "boche" I can still hear the stone ball hit the wooden end off the playfield.
As a french guy I recognize our accent and our frenglish when he talks with french and english xD
Thanks Beth. Good informative video for those you are not familiar with the game.
Great fun ! I wasn't expecting that, lol...Glad you finally make it to Paris & in full form....Curious to see what you'll bring next from my town ! Santé & Bravo pour la médaille ! 👏
Pétanque is popular in Finland too! It's called petankki here :)
It’s so fun to watch you try new things during your journeys. You seem like such a wonderful person with so many talents. Thanks for sharing with us

So many long summer afternoons in France 🇫🇷 drinking red wine and playing!
My gma taught me and my bro how to play petanque, many moons ago. This brought back memories. Awesome!
Great video, I'm glad you had a nice time on your trip to Paris. I played a lot of bocce at family gatherings growing up, which is a very similar game and it's a lot of fun. Incidentally, I studied French for a while a few years ago and even with the repeated coaching of a close friend who's from France, I could not get the hang of that r. lol
Thank you! That was my thought: it looks like bocce.
In Argentine this game is called "Bochas" and it is played with wood balls.
Great video. Looks like you had lots of fun. I'm french Canadian and this game reminds me of my grandfather. He used to play petanque with his friends in the park where he lived in a little rural town in the province of Quebec . Great memories, I miss him dearly.
You are my hero Beth!! 🥰 Your biggest fan in Oregon, Paul 😘
🧄🧅🧄🧅🇲🇫🇲🇫 Bonjour Beth , so glad you & your bo had a nice time in Paris. Ah , ha , life experiences, absorbing other Cultures & realising that meeting people & dipping a toe in unknown waters can & usually does, result in memories that last a lifetime...... MAHOOSIVE ROAR!!!
So cool. I’m glad you shared this adventure with us
Haha, love your new channel, Beth. So much fun. 👍🙂
I had always thought this game was spanish. It's like a sand curling. Great video!
So much fun Beth, you looked like you enjoyed it very much! I occasionally play English bowls but obviously there’s a huge difference, Pétanque doesn’t need anywhere special to play it, makes it much easier to get a game going! We should take this up in the UK, but no doubt it would get stopped because of the steel balls 🙄
Beth I know people ask and wonder about your channel mascot, and I like to thing about it like a singing Piranha. Cheers!
Didn't play that game, but did play some more traditional Bowles games in the summer I spent in the village of Aloxe-Corton in Cote door in 72!

Wow! You're good!
Ok that first throw was not a throw. You just dropped it!:):):) After that there was grace, perfect form, and finesse. You showed how scottish woman roll!! ( of course i mean play petanque!))!!
Thx to Arnaud for the time to teach this game!! C'est tres bien!!
I think Arnaud may be my favorite instructor you’ve had for Roar! …and that’s saying something, a lot of them have been great
Every time Beth said "boules" I heard "bulls," so I was picturing a game where really strong people were literally throwing bulls.
That's the Spanish petanque, 🙉
I knew it as 'boule', and I learned it in the south of France. The metal balls take me back, because American sets are colored and not quite the same. I remember playing with this very nice old gentleman in St. Maxime that my Swedish grandfather knew... I'm 6 or 8 or so, so it's just some guy my grandfather knows. But, it was Prince Bertil, uncle of the current king of Sweden, I later figured out.
That's a claim to fame!
Now you've gone to France to play a French game against a local. Now Arnaud has to challenge you to a Caber toss :P Fair is fair.
Bien jouée Bethanie!
BRAVO BETH...BIENVENUE IN FRANCE...I LOVE HER ENTHOUSIASM...LOVE...JEAN MICHEL...
Omg, SO much fun!
Great fun you two seemed to had there :D the game reminds me of curling
I remember playing petanque as a kid. To this day I had no idea that you're supposed to throw it under your palm.
You should travel to Provence to get a real feel for pétanque. The banter between the players is a big part of the attraction. When you understand what they mean when they ask "tu tires ou tu pointes," you have really become part of the pétanque community.
p.s. The official drink is pastis.
I remember when I played it on PS move and I always wanted to buy a set but in Mexico I couldn't find it
It’s very similar to the Paralympic sport Boccia. In fact I just checked, the two sports are related.
You are AMAZING!
In Spain it is the game elders play in the parks
That looked like so much fun!!! The game sure, but even more so, meeting and making friends with a super cool and presumably random local.
Next time you're in Cincinnati we can play some cornhole! 🌽🕳
I’d love to see you try something like carriage driving or something along those lines!
Was your wrist sore afterwards? I’m sure I would struggle to not throw underhand. Nice day for it!
Hola Beth, en España se juega mucho casi tanto como en Francia. Saludos desde Alicante guapa.
If every woman is as smart, fun, informative and cute as you are, live in Scotland, I need to move there.
French Culture I am also fascinated by. Wonderful people.
Great video as always.
muito legal, obrigado
Fantastic lover lunatic ladybug.....enjoyed this shit and I have to get to play this game now. Cheers and Sláinte Cumhachdach Ban~Díå!
This is Petanca in Spain
In Brazil it is Bocha
No Brasil chamamos de bocha. Normalmente pessoas idosas que jogam. Na praça perto da minha casa tem uma pista para o jogo, mas nunca vi ninguém jogar
The two minutes of the video gave me some Tom Scott vibes. I sincerely mean that as a compliment. Lol.
Cool le français
Next time, for the next level, ask him to show you what we call a "carreau" à la pétanque 😎
C'est drôle de te voir jouer à la pétanque 😁
Haha! Merci!
In the US we miniaturized all the balls and called the game marbles. LOL
And put them *inside* the circle, lol
Now that you play pétanque I can make my proposal. I have been so patient.
Together we will make 13-point games around the world, ah la vie est belle.
Next time you'll visit Central America and play Marbles (Bolinchas or Agatas).
¿Dónde están los subtítulos al español? 😭
¡Saludos, Beth! Me encantan tus vídeos.
I'm adding them soon! x
I play iT my self in Holland
Edit : you did good for a fist time
Wait !
Did you played without Ricard ???????
How can you play without Ricard ?
I think your next try should be Ballet!
Awesome video thank you! But, as someone who is currently learning the French language, isn't the Ultimate French Game any game where one side immediately surrenders to the other side? 🤭 I kid, I kid. 😜 ~Be Blessed
Your so cute love your videos
You came in France, for your holidays, and didn't came to meet me? I'm so sad, and disappointed! 😂
Disco Elysium vibes

isso é bocha?
Isso
So actually your name is Bethany?
So did you meet any hot young Frenchmen there? :o)
Weren't Scotland and France allied for like four hundred years against the English?
I think my (English...oops) partner would be a little upset if I went off with a Frenchman!

Beth cada día es más guapa
what a beautiful woman
Bocce ball?
🚬👽
Disappointed, I though the prize was you singing an Edit Piaf´s song. Is that possible to make a fan happy?
Maybe you found the only one nice guy in all Paris...
