Question - 610
The world championships of which school-yard game?
Hint:
Answer: Conkers, "a game traditionally played by children in Britain, Ireland, and some former British colonies using the seeds of horse-chestnut trees." Only Anand got. Awesome!

Dowsing - but that isn't a school yard game.
World conker championships - perhaps a westernisation of the indian bambharam?;)
That looks like a buckeye - if so, your Ohio love after moving to Cincy is unnerving...
Dinky -- Those are "conkers." Cincy can't even get me to support the Bengals over the Lions let alone Michigan v. that other school.
