2 people, each with a knife,stand 10 or 15 feet apart facing each other
they take turns throwing their knife trying to stick it in the ground 6 to 12 inches from the other person's foot. If it sticks the person must move their foot out that far.
as time goes on their feet get further apart until it gets to a point where one of them can stretch no further or falls.
last man standing wins.
chew the peg is too hard to describe but I'm sure there's info on the interwebs
SLIDE ALERT
Thanks. That sounds like what my brothers called mumbletypeg.
But, from what I saw previously on the WWW, I am guessing your chew the peg is the real mumbletypeg.
