Go To Court Game

Go To Court Game

A fun twist on hide-and-go-seek in the dark, with some legal aspects.

One person is chosen to be the court keeper the other players (with all lights off) run and hide.

Then after the court keeper has counted to 30 the court keeper tries to find them. The other people can run and move, hide and leave their original hiding spots.

When the court keeper finds someone they have to say "go to court" plus the persons name (identify the person in the dark). That player then goes to the stairs for instance, which is the court.

Other players can get them out by giving them a hand signal.

When all players are caught the last person into the court is the court keeper. Best game ever.

"I need a waive!"

Omg we played this game in Michigan in the 70's. Didn't know who made it up so I googled it and found this post. So many great memories!

Great game from my childhood
by: Anonymous

We actually were playing this game as kids back in the 80's. Same name and rules. We were in Mississippi, but our neighbors from Illinois introduced us to it.

Thanks for sharing.

I wasn't in Wisconsin in 2014. Made this game up in May of 2014 inspired by my mom's job as a lawyer. Great minds think alike!

I think I created the rules to this game but no one believes me...
by: Joel

I honestly think that I created this game in 2014 while on vacation in Wisconsin after the kids kept arguing over the rules of kick the can. If anyone out there played this game before 2014 (please tell me when you started playing this game). Thanks!!

Fun Stuff To Do: It is quite possible that one of those kids came back and shared the game with us Joel - our site is quite popular in the US.

Soooooo fun
by: Mabel

We played this all afternoon and it was lots of fun, except for Johnny who got mad because last time his mom went to court she didn't come back for two weeks.
