Do you remember the game from elementary school?

Question

called Heads up 7up? I just heard it on TV and I cannot remember exactlly how it went. I remember you had to put your head down and put your thumb up and somebody pushing it down. But I don't remember the point of it. Does anybody remember?

Answer 1

yea i still play it :)

7 people are up and everyone else closes there eyes and if you get ur thumb pushed you stand up and guess who pushed it

Answer 2

Yes, 7 people would go stand up while the rest had their heads down and thumbs up. Then the 7 people secretly walk around and each tap someone's thumb. Then they put there thumb down so none of the other 7 tap them again. Then when everyone is done they say heads up 7 up. And the 7 with their thumbs down stand up and have to guess who tapped them. And if they got it right then they would go up there and the other person would sit down.

Answer 3

Yes, I remember playing that game in elementary school.
Seven people were in front of the class. The class laid their heads on their desk and the seven people would touch one person's hand and that person would put there thumb up. Then the seven would go back to the front and say "heads up seven up" and each student who's thumb was up got one chance to guess which of the seven touched them. If they guessed right than they changed places. If they did not the same person got to stay up. I think it was just a guessing game...you had to used your other senses to figure out who might have touched you.

Answer 4

That game was so fun. 7 people stood up, the rest put their heads down. The 7 people went around pushing one thumb down each. The 7 people who had their thumbs pushed down had to guess who put their thumb down. If you guessed right, you got to be one of the 7 people standing.

Answer 5

Yeah I loved that game. Once the 7 people that pushed people thumbs done are done every pops up there heads if you thumb got touched you stand up and try and guess who touched your thumb. If you get it right then you get to take the persons place in the 7.

Answer 6

there are 7 people who go around and push down 7 other ppls thumbs, the point of the game is to guess correctly who pushed your thumb down

Answer 7

i think were you're lost is what happens after the person pushes someones thumb, well afterwards all the people whose thumbs were pushed stand up and each of them have to guess which of the 7 people who chose someones thumb chose them...i'm not much of an explainer but i hope someone else explains it better.

Answer 8

ok heads up 7 up.
there are 7 people that are the "pushers".
the whole class puts their heads down and their thumbs up, the pushers go around and each push someones thumb down.
if your thumb is pushed down, you have to guess who pushed it down. if you guess correctly, then you are a pusher. and if you guess incorrectly, then the person that pushed you gets to continue being a pusher

Answer 9

We played it and several more like it in elementary school---back then it was grammar school. Our teachers would read to us, I loved being read to. Do you remember the Weekly Reader?

Answer 10

Yeah! I loved that game!! I think the point was that at the end of the game you had to guess who it was that tapped your finger. And if you guessed right you got to be the one to tap someone else's finger. That sound about right?

Answer 11

I remember the game but not how to play, that was like ... oh never mind, to long ago to remember.
