Askew is a game of suspension and balance invented by a local Greensboro man. We purchased the game in 2006 when he was demonstrating it at Guilford College. Askew involves the laws of physics and challenges fine motor skills. We like it because people usually don’t get upset when you talk while playing and there are several ways to modify the game. Plus, we just love creative, innovative people and are darned proud that this award winning game was invented in our back yard! Here we see it set up on desks at a local school. We think we’ll keep our set in the car this summer to tinker with during concerts in the parks and other public events. What was invented in your city? 

Hey, that would be a good City Daily Photo theme!
