Product Description:

A favorite since 1904, it's the corner the market card game! Shout your deal and trade your cards to "corner" the market. Be the first to get all the cards of 1 commodity, ring the bell, and you'll win the hand. You'll feel like a trader in the "pits" of the exchange! Beware of the Bear and take your chances with the Bull. Deluxe Pit includes 74 casino-quality cards, illustrated rules and silver-colored bell. For 3-8 players. Colors and parts may vary.

Looking for a sure winner in the hot commodities market? Pit, the fast-paced card game from Parker Brothers, has been a bullish performer since its introduction way back in 1904. With all the ups and downs, desperate deals, and nonstop action of an actual trading floor, this lively game offers great fun without risking the family fortune. The rules are simple: Deal the cards, wait for the opening bell, scream and trade like crazy, be the first to corner a specific market (nine cards of the same suit), and ring the closing bell. Sounds pretty realistic, doesn't it? Once you've got the basic game mastered, try throwing Bull and Bear cards into the mix--that's when things get really interesting!

Pit comes neatly boxed with a set of durable game cards, instructions, and a heavy-duty metal bell that's great for slamming. There are rules included for a silent bidding version of the game, but jumping up and down, gesticulating wildly, and shouting yourself hoarse is half the fun. --George Laney

Pit!
I loved this game as a kid with the orange bell! This new version is just as great. Great for lots of people to play and easy to learn. This is one of our favorites!

Pit is not the pits!!!!
I remember this game from a long time ago when I was a kid. I bought the updated version for our high school youth retreat and was pleasantly surprised to find that nothing had changed but the bell! The kids absolutely loved this game. They were so loud and so animated while playing that it was as much fun to watch as to play! My husband - who does not ordinarily play games - did play and had a blast! It is a great game for up to eight people and loads of fun - and you can almost imagine a day at the stock exchange!

Great card game excellent for all ages
I have been waiting for a year to get this product. I played the game at my daughters home with four grandchildren - it was great fun, one of the few card games that is appropriate for all ages.

Great game!
I played this game with some friends and couldn't find it ANYWHERE. I finally found it and since then my siblings and I play it all the time! It's very easy to follow, fast paced, and great fun for any age, as long as you can count and match. Great game!
