Must admit that's a new one on meNot hopscotch obviously :rotfl: but I've never heard it called that before.

What was that game that involved lots of rubber bands knotted together? You used to have to land on a big string of linked up rubber bands.......I think
I was thinking about the double Dutch skipping rope game when I got a vague memory of that.
