Seven Up

SEVEN UP

TYPE: Moderate

Seven players are chosen.  All the other players lower their heads and close one hand in a fist with the thumb extended.  The seven chosen players then walk around the room and each one pushes down one seated player's thumb.  When they are done, they return to the front of the room and the seven players whose thumbs were put down each get one chance to guess who put their thumbs down.  If the player's guess is incorrect, the player who pushed his/her thumb continues playing.  After all seven have taken their guesses, play continues.
