Did you know...?
Yahztee, America's favorite dice game, was originally called the "Yacht Game" because it was created on a yacht by a Canadian couple who wanted
something to do when their friends came aboard. All the friends loved the game, so the couple asked someone to make 1,000 copies of the game
for free for them to give as gifts, in exchange for the rights to the game.
After traditional advertising failed, the new owner of the game changed the name and began hosting "Yahztee parties" to spread the word. And
he's never looked back. Hasbro now sells over 50 million copies of Yahtzee every year!
