Scrabble and Other Board Games

All Aboard the Meme Express – Monday, April 13, 2009

April is National Poetry Month.
Are you participating in the challenge?

Alfred Mosher Butts, American architect and inventor of Scrabble, was born on April 13, 1899. Just for fun, our prompt today is based on the game of Scrabble (sort of).

Today’s Meme Express prompt offers several prompt choices. (Pick the one/s you want to use for your post.) Each prompt is the name of a popular and classic board game. To find the prompts, you have to solve this criss-cross puzzle. Have fun!

  
Across
  
4. “Wow. Triple word score for that one.”
  
6. “He hasn’t got a . . . “
  
7. “King me.”
    
 Down
  
1. “Right hand – yellow.”
  
2. “Wanna buy Boardwalk and Park Place?”
  
3. “Are you willing to take that . . . ?”


5. “You sank my . . . !”
