	Haxey Hood - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Haxey Hood Game is a game of football traditionally played at Haxey in the English county of Lincolnshire on the afternoon of January 6th or Twelfth Day.
		It is a kind of rugby football game, where a leather tube is slowly walked by a large unorganised rugby scrum to 1 of 4 pubs, where it remains until the following year's game.
		The game ends when the Hood arrives at one of the pubs and is touched by the landlord from his front step.

		The game has lots of scope for judgment and is reasonably fun to play, but near the end has a severe kingmaker problem.
		Players have control over the game end, too; as soon as a camel set runs out, the game ends, so if one is fading, one can push to end the game.
		There's probably a tad too much randomness for a long game (similar to Empires of the Middle Ages) and because of the severity of the events, there is not a great deal of player-player interaction.
