How to play the game PIG ( for basketball )

A childhood favorite of mine, called Pig. A game that involves a basketball and a few friends. Also you may remember it being called Horse. Whatever you want to call it, I will tell you how the game is played.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Friends
• Basketball court
• basketball

1. First round up some friends and head to the basketball court. Most parks or community centers have one. I say it is good to have at least three people to play, any less and you can not really play.

2. Next, decide who starts first. Now they can take a shot from anywhere on the court. If they make the shot the next person in line must make the shot the same way the first did. If they so not then they get a letter. For this article and speaking of the game PIG. They would get the letter "p".

3. At this point the game is pretty easy to understand. The last player standing with no letters or does not spell the word PIG wins. You can make other rules as you go. Some people play a variety of ways but this is one way that I always played as a child. Enjoy and have fun.

Tips & Warnings

• You can pick any word you want. As I stated we also played with the word HORSE. The choice is up to whomever you are playing with.
