The Game 'Monopoly' Leads to the Most Fights Among Family and Friends
A new study finds 1 in 5 people have actually banned a board game for causing problems on “Game Night."
It’s "Monopoly" that stands out as the most debated and most forbidden game of all time.
In a recent survey, 20% say that their game nights with friends or family members are often or always disrupted by competitive or unfriendly behavior. Typical antics include someone quitting because they’re losing, someone accusing another player of cheating, and 2 or more players getting into an argument.
Only 11% of respondents said they’ve witnessed a physical fight breaks out.
Although winning is an important reason for playing games for 41% of respondents, only 29% are actively concerned with “beating everyone else.”
