Had some friends over for "game night". While the kids went off to their respective corners to hang out, the adults all hung out, played some boring UNO, and Yatzee (yawn)... Then one of the ladies suggested 3's (a dice game that is played on occasion at several annual parties in our neighborhood).
In 3's, everyone antes a $1, then people take turns rolling dice. I'm not a huge fan of the game, but if you're interested, here are the rules
As for dice games, I've always been a fan of Ship Captain Crew (or 6-5-4). It was a game we played around the firehouse after big calls, etc... It's common in bars as well... It can be played as a drinking game, or for money (with everyone anteing up, winner takes all).
The neighbor ladies suggested we use the Yatzee dice to play 3's... and play for money... I snagged a mini table topper and some rad casino dice, and we played Ship Captain Crew (in style) using some buttery 1970's Paulson hotstamps.
Anyway, my wife, who hates gamboling and anything remotely similar, actually enjoyed the game. Here's a pic!
