Description Edit | History

Based on the 1970's best seller The Book of Lists.

One player takes a card with several partial lists from the book (such as States with highest per capita income (1976), Largest Labor Unions, 7 most popular US Preseidents based on a poll, etc.) He rolls dice to choose which item to read. He and the players then bet chips on where the item appeared on the real list.

The correct guesser places chips he won on a track. The first player to complete the entire track wins.
