Choose one of the 50 United States as your "takeoff" state to begin a "Trip of Cards" across the U.S.A.! The object of Trip 50® is to play a series of Trip Cards in a connecting chain. Each card played must share a border with the takeoff state or with another Trip Card already played. The first person to properly play all of his cards goes "Trip 50®" and wins the round! Players then continue with several rounds of play. The first player to score 250 points wins the game! (From the rules sheet)
