It's an institution somewhere between Friday fish frys and cheese curds.

Mauers are scum!! How much money are you playing for that you can't pick a little thin? She mauers when we're playing for NOTHING!

Playing our handed, three times in a month I picked with both red queens, Ace of D and J of Hearts. Got beat every single time, usually only taking one trick or two max. Damn red queens are a bitch. You get yelled at if you mauer, but you have no guaranteed trick playing the red Q's.

BTW, usually play quarters [25/50/75] but have on occassion played Dollars [1,2,3] Dollars with crack.re-crack, double bump, blitzers can get expensive..

and you can't get an old fashioned out of a BUBBLER

I haven't played Sheepshead in like 10 years. I think we would start out playing that and then switch to "President" (also called Asshole) because we needed something that required little thought...

Played with a guy who always picked on crap and always called my ace. We called this guy a "pick 'n shitter"

This guy would also lead his short suit to the Picker. Whattan idiot.

best part was picking a pinch light and finding a way to win.

Played for luch money and later for toll money (traveling back from Wausau to Chicago)

I hate the game. Everyone I played with growing up - grandparents, parents, siblings, relatives - would rip me a new one if I played the wrong card. I stopped playing when I was old enough to say "no".
