Drinking game that doesn't assert notability (0 non-Wiki Google hits). Was PRODded but author removed on update. Wikipedia is not for things made up one day. Booglamay (talk) - 16:47, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment - I agree with the hoax tag - the line "Baboosac was invented in Providence, Rhode Island in 1776 by colonists to ease the troubles of King Philip's War" was added after the AfD template was, and is (presumably) an attempt to give the article/game some credibility.
(not to mention the fact that the King Philip's War article doesn't refer to anything as late as 1776). Booglamay (talk) - 18:17, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. No evidence to verify any of the claims in the article. Google gives 3 hits[1], all coming from the WP entry. Fails WP:V, likely hoax. Nsk92 (talk) 23:33, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Last summer I was visiting some friends at Brown University (in Providence) and we ended up going to a local bar and saw a group of people playing a drinking game with 2 quarters. We ended up joining them and playing throughout the night. I have been trying to find the name of this game and rules for quite some time now. (That night we got pretty drunk playing this and no longer remembered most of rules and its name the next morning.) I will definitely be playing baboosac this weekend.
