It would be nice to know what it means in Spanish. Then we may be able to provide you with a good English translation.

Well, I know that a Pampa is a palm tree and maybe pampaloca would be a weed that grows wild maybe in the Phillipines.

I know palm tree as palmera. The only pampas I know of are the vast fertile plains in and around Argentina.

I never heard this word before. It sounds like a mix of Pampa argentina and loca, but surely I'm wrong

Could it be "pamba loca"?
"Pamba" is when many people (a group of friends) hit with their hands open someone's head because he/she has made a mistake. "Pamba loca" is a bit more "aggressive".

Aunque nunca falta el abusivo, se hace en plan de juego y no se trata de que nadie salga lastimado... al menos nunca he visto a nadie salir mal de una pamba.
Por cierto, a mí también me da curiosidad saber cómo se dice en inglés un "ataque" semejante, que es la pregunta del inicio y aún no ha sido respondida.

A friend may certainly hit another friend on the head for making a mistake, or doing something dumb, but I've never heard of a group of friends planning or participating in such an event.
We have something called a 'dogpile'. This is when a group of friends jumps on top of an unexpecting 'victim'. The person at the bottom of the pile isn't necessarily in danger, unless too much weight is applied. No hitting is done. The person at the bottom usually yells for people to get off before any real damage occurs. Last edited by Rusty; June 14, 2009 at 10:06 PM.

Lo que escribiste en español explica muy bien lo que es 'dogpile', pero no estoy seguro de que bolita sea la palabra que se usa.
jugar a las bolitas = to play marbles
