I was watching TV one night and saw this game that looked very similar to a chess game, only it was played outside with wooden game pieces.  The people on the TV said it was actually a cross between bocce ball and horseshoes, but was similar to chess because of the name of the pieces and the shapes of the wood.  They called it Viking Kubb.  I had never seen or heard of it before, so it was very interesting to watch.  The TV spokesperson said that the game was originally made in the UK but is now available here in the US.  I am looking forward to purchasing a set so we can try the game out ourselves.
