      I was stuck in the great blizzard in the 70’s in a college dorm of1000 guys. No electricity- no running water which meant no flushing toilets or showers. Lots of Euchre tho.

          That would have been nasty. We had a major electrical outage when I was in the dorms, but water was running. I was brought up playing Sheephead, but learned Euchre in college. Played a ton of Cribbage during my college days, too.

          Oh, and there was the ten guys playing the non-card game of Assassin during the power outage that I'm eternally grateful that the Statute of Limitations has expired on all the crimes we committed during that time.

            I played a ton of cribbage in college also, plus backgammon, we had a horseshoe pit and a great Wiffle ball field. Beer was required during all these games

              That sounds awesome. I love wiffle ball, croquet, horeshoes and card games. And beer.

                Our campus was a bit paranoid about drunken males throwing chunks of metal around, so no horseshoe pits on our campus. But beer...oh, yeah. I went to school at a place where a minibrew operation survived through the 70s and 80s. Only time I wouldn't drink beer during gaming time was if I was in a tournament. Then it was Mountain Dew, my version of the Juice of Sapho.

                  The horseshoe pit and wiffle ball field was off campus the 4 of us lived in a house just off campus. We also had the local dive bar next to us with a great shuffle board game in it. Friday night specials - shot of schnapps with a little king chaser for a buck. Winners stayed on and loser bought. Me and my roommate were pretty good so most Friday nights required the girlfriend to pick us up. Even tho we lived a block away- as she always reminded us

                      I wasn't going to post in the political threads, but couldn't help myself. For the record I filled in three ballots for Joe Biden this year, so I can't be that bad.

                          I doubt that's even fraud in Illinois; well, at least Cook County.

                            the four seasons event was comedy gold, and this captures it perfectly:

                              Four Seasons Total Landscaping on Women's T-Shirt – This shirt was designed in celebration of the absurdity of the end of the Trump campaign. It will never be offered on black, because some things are meant to be orange, like sunsets and Gritty’s fur. I am working directly with Threadless to direct ALL profits to voting rights organizations(reached my max on the Warnock and Ossoff GA Senate donations!) - more details on Twitter at @sawdustbear.
