• Beth Lynn Eicher - I've got a basketball. Anyone want to play T-U-X right after lunch? That is where you challenge your oppents to make baskets from similar distance and angle. Those who miss the answer the oppent's goal get a letter; first T, then U, then X. Those who spell TUX are out of the game. This is a game of the last one standing. Follow the rules of HORSE for more information.
