Pétanque, pronounced pay-tonk, one of Europe's most popular outdoor games, is a distant cousin of horseshoes and a close relative of bocce. The aim is to toss, or roll a number of steel balls as close as possible to a small wooden aim ball ( or "cochonnet", meaning piglet in French ).
Players take turns, and whoever ends up closest to the aim ball when all balls are played, wins. Unlike horseshoes, where the aim stake is fixed, pétanques' aim ball may be hit at any time, which can completely turn around the score at the last second. And whereas the official bocce rules call for a prepared court, with markers and sideboards, petanque can be played on most outdoor surfaces, anytime you feel like.
No special skill is required, adults can play with children, and a game lasts as long as you want it to. The game of pétanque is simple, relaxing, lots of fun and a perfect way to make new friends. Last but not least, pétanque can be (and usually is) played while enjoying a tasty glass of wine or pastis and some mouth-watering French goodies ! http://petanqueamerica.com/
