They were talking about video games on the radio, as that is always a popular issue, and than one person called in about how he and his wife and thier friends play WoW and such, and the guys on the radio, was talking about how really that is not so different than back in the day when people would through bridge parties and sit around to play bridge, and well that just got me thinking.
Back in the day when I was younger, I remember every new years my aunt would have this part, win which we would play this really elaborate card game that lasted almost all night. I cannot remeber what it was called, but I keep wanting to call it Blanco, but I am pretty sure that is not right. I do not know where the game first came from, or where my aunt heard about it, and I think when he played there were prizes involved for the winner.
Now it has been a while, but this is the best of my memory of the game. There were all these different tables set up in my aunts house, and groups would gather around the tables, and it was some sort of card game you played, but than I think in addition, each player had this little like score card thing, and you would play this card game, and than after so long, a bell would ring, and at that point, whoever had the most points marked it on thier card and than everyone rotated to another table, and it would go on like that, you would move from table to table playing with different people all the time, and each time you won you marked it on your card, and than when someone had thier card filled out they would have to shout out the name of the game in order to offcially win.
