Yes, Heads Up 7-Up. I think that's a San Diego thing because I swear 99% of people I've asked about that game have never heard of it. Total rainy day game!
I know you California-ans like to think you play the specialest games, but I definitely cheated at some rainy day recess games during my Oregon youthhood. Heads Up 7-Up is the one where you cheat and look at shoes.
Fixed! Sorry, the NY Times did not mention Portland but the link I've now posted does. Thanks!
Also, I drank too many margaritas. The end.
