Peg in the bottle

|
Peg in the Bottle is a game of skill traditionally played at Christmas parties in the North of England. Originating from deprived families who had little more than utensils and empty milk bottles to play with, the game evolved into a phenomenon in the 20th century. Today variations of the game may be found in fair and carnival midways. Playing requires a milk bottle, three clothes pegs, or if no pegs are available, pens. Rules An unlimited number of players can get involved. Each player has three pegs. Players must kneel on a chair, leaning on the chairback, and attempt to drop the pegs into the milk bottle placed on the floor behind the chair. The player with the highest number of successful 'Pegs in the bottle' wins. If two or more players get the same amount, then they progress to the next round until the champion of peg/pen dropping is crowned. |
