Marco Polo and swimming pools - from my kid.
Get a bunch of people in the pool. One person is "it" and they have to close their eyes. The rest of the people swim around trying not to make noise and avoiding the person who is "it." The person who is "it" calls out Marco, the rest of the swimmers call out Polo. The person who is "it" tries to find them based on where the word "Polo" came from and tag them. The people who call out Polo do not have to stop swimming. Every once in a while, the person who is it will call out "Fish out of Water." The person who is it will open their eyes and anyone who got out of the pool trying to avoid being tagged will be eliminated from the game. If only one person got out of the pool, that person becomes "it."
I believe that in the 1930, Gary Cooper, as Marco Polo brought spaghetti back to Italy from China.
During the Depression, all we had was spaghetti. We ate what was put in front of us, and we were glad to have it because children were starving in China.

I also believe that there is a reference to pasta in Italy from about the 400 s. And Marco Polo went to China about a 1000 years later.
That must have been the sequel.

Hey, he gets around! He's always in our neighborhood pool, too.

He doesn't just swim either! He works in my warehouse...I know because the guys are always hollering for him when they're working in close proximity to the various lift machines.
One day the "Marco", "Polo" bit went on longer than my headache was up for and I nearly shouted, "For crying out loud, the SOB died over 400 years ago - leave him the hell alone!"
