quoits

A game similar but distinctly unique from modern horseshoes. Quoits is played with a rubber or metal ring-shaped object called a quoit rather than a U shaped horse shoe.

Specific rules for the game vary from place to place, as does the pronunciation of it's name. In central New Jersey, we play Trenton Quoits (Trent-n Kwates).

Bill: "Tim's having a BBQ this weekend."

Ted: "We gonna play quoits?"

Bill: "Yeah man, his pit is clay and everything!"
