HISTORICAL FICTION ENTRY:

As Sandro walked to his home on Via Borgo Ognissanti, he was so completely preoccupied he did not pay attention to his surroundings and collided forcefully with an unfortunate gentleman. The moderately obscure artist’s parchments went sprawling on the brick walkway, some fluttering quite a distance in the breeze.

“Sandro, please look where you’re going.”

“I’m sorry, Filippo, but I’ve just made the most amazing discovery.”

Hoping his eccentric neighbor had some interesting gossip to share, Filippo inquired further.

“There is apparently a game, a quite popular one, that is being played around town, and they’ve named it after me!”
