Off Topic: Variations In The Game Of Jacks
When I was a kid I was the queen of Jacks. My best bud Bethann and I used to play for hours and hours. My husband was deprived of this childhood tradition, so I bought a set of Jacks on Amazon so I can whip his butt mercilessly play with him. Now, I remember how to play the game and all the variations of how to throw the ball, bouncing, and picking up Jacks. What I can't remember were the formations we made after you complete tensies. By formations I mean we used to place the Jacks on the floor in very specific patterns for the next rounds. The only one I can remember is Around the World, which was just a big circle. A preliminary search on Google seems to suggest we were the only ones who played this way. So what I need to know dear readers, does anyone remember any Jacks formations, or even playing this way?
