Do any of you know this game?
It's where you have to read cards to eachother that say something...like.. umm..like. Well, before I bother explaining it

Does any body else know what I'm talkin about?

You know what! We should have a MAD GAB-LIKE thread here on CGR! Where someone says something, then first person to guess it makes up another! I dunno, it sounded cool.

Hehe, it might be pretty cool. I enjoyed that game the few times I have played it.

DUDE, that game so ROCKS! As for how to explain it... You get a card that you hold up for the other team to see. On the side facing them there are real words that don't really make sense together...looks kind of like gibberish. However, if you say the words (sound them out) it's really saying another phrase that makes sense. You always know the phrase the other team is trying to guess because you can see it on your side of the card. If you've ever played the computer game 'You Don't Know Jack' it's sort of like the gibberish questions on that game. An example from when I played a couple weeks ago with some friends:

The card reads: Bee Lee Gray Ham

They're supposed to guess: Billy Graham

It gets rather hilarious because of the way you can hear the other team sounding it out and they're SO close to it...even saying it without realizing it sometimes. It also gives you a weird sounding accent almost when you're sounding these things out and don't know what you're saying yet.

That is the funny part!! I'll be sitting here while the other time says the EXACT thing, and you know what happens some times, I'm like CORRECT! and they don't even know what it is, but some times they act like they know so they can move on. lol. Just making this post has made me want to play it again. lol.

I've only played this once before but I really liked it. I wish I had it. I want to play it again. I think MAD GAB on CGR would be pretty fun.

Here's a great example of madgab-type things that I found. Mad gab phrases are always shorter of course, but I thought this was funny. You gotta read it out loud.
