We were invited to play in a Euchre tournament this weekend with some friends from our baseball team. I was kind of embarassed, because I associate euchre with old ladies... but let me tell you, it was so much fun!
Good times, great friends, delicious food, crazy-amounts of rum and diets.... AND, the best part?
I got a trophy and $15 for the most 'lone hands!....and a hangover. But that's ok. All in the name of euchre!

I love Euchre!!!
I have never heard of such a game, so I had to google and now feel the need to share part of the description on wikipedia because for some reason this was just too much of a coincidence in the life of Amy loves:
"It is the game responsible for introducing the joker into modern packs; this was invented around 1860 to act as a top trump or best bower (from the German word Bauer, "farmer", denoting also the jack)"
Bauer, Jack Bauer...hmmmm
My parents are obsessed with euchre! I love it too but hardly anyone I know knows how to play.
Most of the people are very like it and interesting post shared we can be enjoy it in this post.
