Not a game envolving balls during play, this ISIHAC classic has earned ranking within the ball game genre as a result of the classification of what can only be descibed as its outcome; I refer of course to the legendary game of Cheddar Gorge - quoting from wikipedia (and correcting the mistakes) -
In spite of the strange name, the rules are quite simple. The gameplay consists of the progressive construction of a sentence, with players adding one word at a time in rotation. Each word must leave the possibility of the sentence being completed in a grammatically correct and meaningful manner, but players are to avoid actually completing the sentence. When a grammatically correct sentence has been formed, the player who added the final word is eliminated. Play continues with the remaining players starting a new sentence. The last player left is the winner.
