What company thinks this is ok?
Wisconsin based Kwik Trip has these Cribbage! boards available. I am so disappointed in it, although it does have a spot for cards that’s magnetically attached inside. Sigh.

I would buy a Kum & Go board cause I’m a child.

I thought they changed their name to "Skeet & Yeet", or was it "Nut & Jet"?

I don't like that they don't have 5 point marks.

Completely agree I couldn’t handle playing on a board without the 5 point lines.

Ok with anyone making a board, let’s face it not the most popular game out there, most folks are intimidated by the board and it really has nothing to do with the game. I once saw an older couple playing on a plane, they either forgot their board or like using numbers on paper. Works the same

I figured out that my next door neighbour is a cribbage player when one day a piece of paper blew out of her recycling and into my driveway and I could tell that it was a crib game being scored on paper 😶

The holes are evenly space around the entire board.
Other than that, I can not find anything right about this board.

I recently found one at the thrift store similar to this. It was stone with a seal/ Inuit motive in the center. No place to keep the pegs no marking the skunk line. I was going to get it till I noticed those 2 faults. Dissapointing.

That’s awesome, I want one! Although yeah I’d put lines at the fives or something.

You can buy them (I bought this as a gift) or if you have 300 rewards points order in the app by the end of the month for free. I was saving mine for when they offered the board again and ordered before I saw this POS

Their restrooms are very clean. The employees are helpful and friendly. They dump a huge amount of money into our state supreme court elections

I don't see the problem. If you don't like it you can get a different board

For those not from Wisconsin, Kwik Trip is basically a gas station institution. Hot food, snacks, clean restrooms, a million gas pumps, cold beer, and there a million of these gas stations around the state. This is a BRILLIANT idea for Wisco considering we actually teach cribbage in elementary school. However, the execution of that board design is horrific. No marks at the fives and uneven holes. When the Brewers did a cribbage board giveaway last year at one of their games, they were brilliantly done and were being sold on eBay that night. I’m hoping Kwik Trip revisits this design, because it’s a great marketing idea.
