Horse
Horse is a basketball street game where players attempt to duplicate trick shots. The first player attempts to shoot a basket. If they make the shot, the next player needs to duplicate the trick exactly. If they fail, they are assigned the letter "H." All players then attempt the shot, being penalized with a letter if they fail. When the original shooter's turn comes around again, they attempt a different shot. If they fail, the next shooter becomes the leader and calls the shot. Every time a shooter misses, they are assigned another letter in the word H-O-R-S-E. When a shooter has spelled the entire word, they are out. Play continues until only one person is left. That player is the winner. Rules may vary slightly.3
