Russell's Wild and Crazy Adventures

Yeah I know. I'm jumpin on the bandwagon and doing the trendy thing of starting a blog. I figure with all the pictures that I take whenever I do anything, this'd be cool.

History of the Boy Game

I was introduced to the Boy Game in January 2005 when my friend, Pete, and two of his friends met me in Hawaii for a little vaca. It didn't quite strike me when they first explained it, but after I got my first boy I was reeled in for sure. I was an easy target for those veteran players, getting two more boys before our week together was up.

Apparently, the game originated at the University of Buffalo (NY), when one of their buds was talking to his girlfriend and somehow a boy band member's name came up. Somehow, that evolved into what we know now as the Boy Game.

For pretty much everyone I've introduced it to, the game doesn't really sink in until they get their first. After that, they're hooked (and pissed). The game has been played by people all over the country, including parts of NYC, Colorado Springs, Los Angeles, and Virginia.
