     (Explainer for those not steeped in the Ways of Minnesota: Instead of “Duck Duck Goose,” kids here play “Duck Duck Gray Duck,” a perverse local custom which of course violates both scripture and the laws of nature)

     @inthehands I still remember playing "Duck Duck Goose" in my elementary school basement with other like-minded inmates. This was Wisconsin, so it explains the disparity.

     My wife was born in Minnesota (though she moved to Texas when she was pretty young) and she remembers “Duck, Duck, Green Duck”

     Get it together, Minnesota.

     Definitely possible. She moved to Texas when she was three or four.
