Thanks!

You should check out what they show on Wikipedia about the kids' swimming
game called Marco Polo.  It's an all out war between contributors on who is
right and who is wrong - including some guy who claims to have invented it
in Ohio in the 50s (or something like that) - making everyone else wrong.

I came across it the other day when we were talking about the "real"
Marco Polo because my son was learning about it in class.
