    Like the starting of tig we count and whoever the count falls on must lie while the rest go ahide. When the rest are safely ahide they shout whoop, and that is lying will come and look for them and if he finds any of them he that is caught must lie. I also play hurling, football, handball, and skittles at home. Sometimes if I visit any house in which there are children I play blind mans buff, or hide the button.
