Few events have scarred American politics as deeply as the Watergate Scandal of 1973. And, like other important events in popular culture, it was memorialized in at least one card game, 'The Watergate Scandal." To quote the rules: "Nobody in the Watergate Scandal wins. There are just losers. The loser with the least amount of penalty points...is the winner." Players try to deceive one another and can "accuse" each other of coverups. The entire game, while serious, is also humorous as it pokes fun at the political seesaw of the era.
