This chicken challenge is originated from the Tropicana Hotel and Casino, in Atlantic City. This game is all about going head-to-head with a chicken named Ginger. Yes! A chicken! Ginger is famous for being a champion of this popular weird game, taking down almost every competitor from around the world. For the game to start, you need to walk up forward and place a bet. Then, Ginger, the chicken will peck around its cage until it hits a button that corresponds with the X, Y position on the tic-tac-toe grid. If a person wins against the chicken, they can win an amazing sum.

Vinkensport/Belgium Birdsong

Vinkensport or Belgium Birdsong is a game based in Belgium, which became viral amongst gamblers. This game is about a group of birds caged separately, where it takes turns to sing for punters. The bettors bet their money on the bird of their choice and hope it will sing the longest and the loudest. The whole concept of the game is based on old traditional betting systems but in the form of birds! 

War

Casino War is another game that enters the list of the top 5 strangest casino games. But guess what? You will find this game practically at every land-based casinos and even at online casinos. It is especially popular among children because of the simple game rules and its objectives. The central intention of this game is to win all the cards. The players place their bets, and the dealer deals one card at a time. If the card of the player is higher than the dealer’s, the player wins the round. But if the game is a draw, the player can either surrender and drop half of the bet or go all-in. Choosing ‘go to war’ means your wagering value is multiplied, making the game more intense, competitive, and exciting.

Dreidel

Dreidel is a betting game traditionally practised by the Jewish people for a long time. You will normally find Jewish people play this game in the living rooms during their festival Hanukkah. In recent years, the game has been introduced in many American casinos. This game is played by using a spinning top with 4 sides, where there are specific Hebrew alphabets crafted on each side. The letters read as Nun, Gimel, Hei and Shin, which is an acronym for ‘Nes Gadol Hayah Sham’ and translates to ‘a great miracle happened there’. The game includes a minimum of 10 objects, which can be anything like buttons, chocolates, pennies, or raisins. The player has to put one of the items into the ‘pot’ and spin the Dreidel every turn. The winner is judged depending on the side the Dreidel faces- Nun: nothing, Gimel: everything, Hei: half, and Shin: put in. What’s more amusing about this game is that it has its major league in New York!

Rodent Roulette

If you’ve heard about the classic Roulette games, this version of Roulette is probably the strangest and weirdest you’re yet to witness! This game is played by using a rat or gerbil, and as usual, the players place their bets on an odd/even number or red/black pocket. But instead of the croupier spinning the wheel and dropping the ball, the animal is placed on the wheel. At one point, the animal will hide in one of the pockets, and if it happens to be the one you placed your bets on, you’ll be the winner. Although some players abhor this game, many love it as the whole style of the game is exciting and entertaining.
