At Greefield Village in Detroit they play a couple of games a year. I have been meaning to go to a game but haven't had the chance yet. I guess it is very cool to watch.

They do this in Indianapolis every once in a while at Connor Prairie, a living history museum.

Sometimes they play rounders or town ball, where you can "soak" the runner. (Throw at them and if the ball hits you, you're out.)

It makes for remarkable and sincere discourse.
