CHOOSING IT

EACH PLAYER PUTS HIS FOOT INTO A CIRCLE. THE CALLER
POINTS TO ONE FOOT PER WORD:
UM BUM BEENA,
SHUCK-A-LUCK-A-TEENA,
TICK-A-TACK-A-ILLY BILLY BUM

Submitter comment: WHOEVERS' FOOT HE IS POINTING AT ON THE LAST WORD,
THAT PERSON IS OUT AND CANNOT BE "IT." THE CALLER
CONTINUES UNTIL THERE IS ONLY ONE PERSON LEFT. THAT
PERSON IS "IT."
