Most everyone in my family plays as well, I do not. My daughter's, (11) and (9) are in a cribbage club at school. It's cool seeing all the neatly designed boards at different camps and cabins. I wonder what makes us the odd ducks out in the families I blame too much to do outside to want to sit still at a table an play in the overheated house at holidays when most people in the family learned by the time I was old enough to slow down a bit I was chasing my own kids around.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

yes and played every morning at the lake with the kids growing up. When the daughter went into Grade one she asked if anyone could count, after several kids tried after about 12 they were muffled, no problem my daughter went up to 31 and the teacher stopped her. Then she asked if they could count by two's, and waiting for the others she had a roll; 15-2 15-4 15-6 15-8 15-10 and a bushel ! Muffled the teacher asked.."a Bushel " yup just like buns you buy 12 The light came on when the teacher asked ? Cribbage, and I have skunked my dad many times and with those Math skills she went on to be a land surveyor Dam right…card games are an intricate building block on social and emotional skills that need to happen at the adolescent level!

Crib was played a lot by my Aunts and Uncles and parents at family gatherings. I played it a couple times as a teenager, but never got into it.

I enjoy the game. Cribbage has been played in our family for as long as I can remember. At our family reunion, we have a tournament with a traveling trophy.

I play, my 3 sons have played since an early age. I’ve spent dozens of winters shooting coyotes for Ranchers from above the Hi Line down to Eagle Pass Texas, farther country west and too many places in between to remember. I cannot remember a single ranch/livestock operation where a crib board didn’t come out. From the sitting rooms of incredibly wealthy oil money ranches to line trailers in places God couldn’t even find on a map I’ve played the game. Some of the utensils used for pegs cannot be spoken of in proper company. Some of the decks we used were past there prime we’ll say and leave it at that. I’ve played with all sorts of folks and for all sorts of wagers. I’ve beat some, lost a fair amount, and can happily say I’d sit down to a game with any of those folks again.
