A head game is a game played by the Machumbi, a primitive head-hunting tribe
hidden in the thick jungle of central Africa. The children of the Machumbi
are taught at a young age how to play this game which involves sticks and a
shrunken head. The winner of the head game is the one who can succesfully
dribble the head along the ground and send it hurtling between the legs of
the opponent. The winner gets to keep the head as a trophy and may chose to
use it as a doorstop, paperweight, or planter.
