Euchre is a trick-taking card game played in several parts of the world. It is closely related to the French game Écarté.

History

---

The British Isles (most notably in the Channel Islands, Cornwall, Devon, Hampshire, and Kent), United States, Canada and Australia all have large followings of the game. In the United States, euchre has declined in popularity since the 19th century, when it was widely regarded as the national card game, but it retains a strong following in some regions. Today, although euchre players can be found across the United States, the game is most predominant in the Midwest (especially Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, and Indiana), as well as Pennsylvania and upstate New York — all areas with significant populations of German-Americans who settled in those areas during the 19th century. In Canada, euchre's largest following is in Ontario.

@JustinMartinek Yeah... you know Euchre is a much less dangerous winter sport. Maybe they should try that instead.
