Alternate Rules

edit

I've never heard of the thumbs up rule for Seven Up which is on the main page.

When we played in my old elementary school we just had to put our heads down on the desk and if someone picked you, you have to raise your hand. And after the picking was done, the teacher would say "Heads up, seven up. Stand up if you got picked!".

Can this alternate method be posted on the entry page? --CJ 08:12, 27 October 2006 (UTC)Reply


Thank you.

This is hands down (thumbs up?) my favourite Wikipedia article ever. You rule. 74.58.48.17 (talk) 00:28, 12 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Teacher's tactic?

What's up with the rumour about this game being designed to be easily cheatable so that teachers know whom to watch out for during tests? I've heard it in quite a few places. 142.68.26.111 (talk) 00:04, 14 November 2013 (UTC)CuriousReply

Not to be confused with the card game

edit

Any mention of the game Seven Up in 19th century (or earlier) literature is almost certainly a reference to the card game, not to this children's game. ABehrens (talk) 03:07, 28 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
