It's a commodities trading game. You have cards for wheat, barley,
oats, rye, a bull and a bear (of course), and some others I can't
remember now. Each grain has a point value and you have to be the first
to gather all of one kind in your hand, at which time you have a corner
on the market and you yell "Corner!" You basically turn your dining
room table into a trading pit. It's a very LOUD game and gets very
competitive.
