ABSTRACT:
An elongate game board for use by at least two players, with the board having a number of holes disposed in an equally spaced manner in each of a series of essentially parallel columns, which columns extend for a substantial portion of the length of the board. The holes typically are of a depth sufficient to receive therein a peg representing each player. Elastic band suspension devices are located adjacent one end of the game board, around which an elastic band is mounted, with the elastic band having sufficient elasticity as to permit it to be stretched around two or more pegs placed in holes of respective columns. The elastic band continues to be stretched to a greater and greater extent as the players' pegs are moved further down their respective columns in a first direction, with the loser in each phase of the game being that person causing the elastic band to break while he or she is endeavoring to move his or her peg to a hole further away from the elastic band suspension means. A second set of elastic band suspension devices may be located at the second end of the board, so that elastic bands of substantial length may be used in the game. In this latter instance, the pegs may be moved in the return direction after the still unbroken elastic band has been wrapped around the second set of suspension devices.
