Jawa tossing is a cantina/bar attraction in which jawas are thrown onto the floor or against walls. More civilised locations provide appropriate padding of hard surfaces. Participants compete to throw the jawa the farthest. A related, derived practiced activity is jawa bowling, in which a jawa is placed placed on a hoverboard and used as a bowling ball.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Jawa Tossing was invented by the Gamorreans Afruk and Nashuf, cantina patrons in Mos Eisley on Tatooine, upon seeing an obnoxious jawa thrown through the room by a guest it had been harassing.
From Tatooine, the game of Jawa Tossing spread throughout the southern Outer Rim, though its practice is limited on most planets by a lack of available jawas. Attempts to substitute other species have predominantly resulted in failure as none are as suitable for tossing, or provoke quite the same urge, as the jawas.
The practice is prevalent largely on planets that have other worries than its legality. However, legislators on some more civilised worlds have introduced a preventative ban on the grounds that a jawa's capacity to give informed consent to being tossed is doubtful. Not that consent usually enters into the picture.
The original 'victim', a jawa named Akkik, has made quite some money by procuring suitable padding and renting himself out to be tossed without making a fuss about it, thus making the pastime accessible to people with marginally more refined sensibilities and consciences than the original Gamorreans.
