Rules are simple; from a standing position, the first player takes a card, holds it along his side and then, with a flip of the wrist, lets it drop to the floor. It lands, with the picture facing up (heads) or the stats facing up (tails). The second player then flips and tries to match the card. If they match (both heads or both tails), player #2 wins the cards, if they did not match, the cards goes to player #1. I lost 100s of cards this way .
We used to use the grade school wall as a backstop. We would stand about 15 foot away and flip them at the wall. Closest card to the wall wins. Back then I never collected just bough the occasional pack or 2 to play. We also done this with nickels and dimes.
