QUESTION:
Which is NOT a game that is
regularly played in China?
a) Rock scissors paper
b) One potato two potato
c) Tiger, Stick, Chicken
d) Liar's dice
ANSWERS:
a) Wrong. This game is so popular
that Chinese children play it with their feet as
well as their hands. Guess again.
b) Correct, there is no game like
this. There is a special feeling when you are deep
in another's culture, and games are a good way to
fit in. The similarities to many of your own country's
games will help everybody see that we are closer
than we sometimes want to admit. Have a good game!
c) This is that loud game where drunken
people yell and shake their hands at each other
in bars and restaurants. (No, not the game of dating,
just Tiger Stick, Chicken!) Go Tiger, it usually
wins!
d) Shake, rattle and roll. This great
game is what those leather dice cups were made for
it's all about bluffing - great fun. If you have
to lie, it might as well be at the dice table, not
in the boss's office.
