Thanks for listening.

This is Planet Money from NPR.

Legend has it, there was a Canadian couple in the 1950s who liked to play this game called yacht.

They owned a yacht.

They play the game on their yacht.

But as far as I could tell, that is all the yacht involved in this game called yacht.

Yeah, why not?

And so the unnamed Canadian sold the game idea to a game entrepreneur who then made the very wise decision to not sell the game as Yacht.

He changed the name, of course, to Yahtzee.

Yahtzee!

Nobody's going to buy and yell Yacht.

Come on.
