Sign cricket : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sign cricket Sign cricket (also called pub cricket) is a car game which is played in the United Kingdom and other countries with a sufficient number of suitably named pubs. The game's popularity has declined with the increase in motorway travel, where long car journeys typically bypass towns and rarely pass a public house. ==Rules== There are several variations of the rules. A basic version is described in the 1966 ''AA Book of the Road''.〔 Taking it in turns during a journey, one player ''bats''. This means he looks for pubs which the car passes. When one is found he gets a ''run'' (point) for each physical leg possessed by the subject of the title of the pub. Thus "The Jolly Sailor", a biped, gets 2 points whilst "The White Horse", a quadruped, gets 4. If a pub's name is that of an object or concept with no legs, it scores no points. A player is ''out'' if the pub name includes the word "arms" or "head" (e.g. "The King's Head", "The Baker's Arms"), and it is the next player's turn. The game ends at the end of the journey. The player with the highest score wins.
