--------
Players and/or playing pieces: 2 humans, humainoids or Real Persons;
one or more pigeons or other urban nuisance fowl.
Equipment: Nil. Eye protection and or easily washable outergarments
recommended.
Game-board/field/pitch: Ten to twenty linear feet of downtown
sidewalk.
Order of play: The two human-types place themselves opposite each
other with a random number of fowl minding business between them. One
player starts the game by making appropriate noises and/or hand/body
motions with the intent of shooing the fowl towards the other player.
The other player then similarly attempts to shoo the fowl back towards
the starter. Fowl moving completely past either player, or leaving the
pitch on either side are out of play.
Play continues until last pigeon forfeits or #42 bus arrives.
Scoring: By mutual agreement or via call of bullshit. (see FISHING.)
House rules:
--Dogs and similar housepets shall be treated as a third humanoid
player until all fowl leave play.
--Cats are acts of God and as such void the game.
--Crows shall be considered playing pieces until both players decide
that the crows have figured out the game and are now playing *them*.
Game is then forfiet.
--#s 41, 57, and 28 buses shall be considered random traffic hazards.
--Feeding the pigeons before the start of play is generally considered
cheating.

Eep.
