Okay, me and clmbng_addict have been having a little argument about a children's game. I think most people know the game we've been talking about, but we just can't agree on what it's called.

So, is it Duck, Duck, Gray Duck, or is it Duck, Duck, Goose?

I say it's Gray duck.

Maybe it's just a regional thing, but what did all of you grow up playing?

Gray duck is weak, nobody plays with a gray duck. That game is all about the goose; without the goose it's nothing. Who's ever heard of "duck, duck, gray duck"? No one, that's who, except for sketchy people.


My goose just ate your gray duck for dinner.

Oh, the gray duck, is so much better than the goose. Who wants to play with a goose? it just sounds wierd. Besides, with gray duck, you can have so much more fun, making up names for peole as you go around the circle.

The goose will never beat the gray duck.

Are you guys for real? WTF is duck, duck, whatever? Is it a drinking game cuz if it's not, it's not even worth discussing. Then again, who the hell cares about the rules in a drinking game, anyhow? That's it, I gotta go get a beer...........

If you drink while you play it, i guess that would make it a drinking game. Only if you use the goose though, gray duck won't work.


My goose already beat the gray duck, before they even had a chance to fight. Like i said, he just ate it. Long live "duck, duck, goose."

The original monicker was of French origin.
It was coined during the period when France was under attack from Germany.

uh...goose. haven't you seen the campbell's soup commercial? The little girl clearly says goose when she taps whichever football player that is. :)

I mean really, if campbell's says its so...its so. :)

Please note I'm being sarcastic, though I do know it as goose.

Never even heard of "Gray Duck." What is that?

It's always been "Duck, duck, goose."

Been that way as a childhood game forever. My Grandmother or grandfather (can't remember anymore) taught me "Duck, duck, goose." So, they had been playing it since their childhood which would mean back to 1906 or so. Well, at least grandma. She was born in 1900, but grandpa was born in 1912.

Hey, as long as it's fun it shouldn't matter! :)

Grey duck? What the hell is that? Maybe it's just my Canadian upbringing but the only way to go is with the duck, duck, goose. Besides, is the grey duck a racial thing. I mean, is it any less of a duck just because it is gray? Grey duck is lame dude!

Yeah man, that's what i'm saying. No weakass duck could handle a goose, the duck would get owned before he even saw it coming. Especially a gray duck.

Respect the goose.

Ok, sushislayer here's how you play duck, duck, GRAY DUCK:
you sit in a circle with a bunch of friends, and one person is it, they walk around the outside of the circle and tap each person on the head and say "duck", then when they get to the person that they want to be the next "it" they say "gray duck" and that person jumps up, and chases the person who chose them all around the circle, until they get back to ths spot where the person was sitting before they got picked, but if the person who was picked manages to catch the other player, and tag them, then the original it person either has to go sit in the middle(the duck soup) or they have to stay it, and the person they tagged gets to sit back down.

Sorry for the run on sentance there.

Now, when we played duck duck gray duck, we usually added a little variation, that I've heard most of you goose lovers missed out on. When we went around the circle, instead of just saying "duck" we would add an adjetive in front, either a color, or something that described the person, for instance, a typical game would go something like this:

Blue duck, purple duck, ugly duck, green duck, silly duck, great duck, GRAY DUCK!

Now, the beauty of playing this version is that you could really throw some people off by saying things like ggggrrrrreen duck or better yet, gggrrrreeeaaaat duck, and sort of lull everyone into a false sense of security, and then you strike. It adds a whole new dimension to the game that most of you goose freaks are missing.

sushi,

Anything can be turned into a drinking game.

Duck, duck, goose! Run two circles without being caught. If the person doesn't catch you, they chug a beer. If you are caught, you chug a beer.

Cutting through the middle is legal, but you have to run without spilling your beer which will be in mugs, not bottles or cans. Mugs with tops aren't allowed. If you spill a little, that's okay, but if you spill a lot you have to stop, refill, and chug it.

Ta-da! Drinking game. Feel free to add or subtract rules to truly define the Duck, duck, goose drinking experience!
