Where it came from

Raja Mantri Chor Sipahi was the game of the last bench and the long bus ride home. It taught an entire generation to keep a straight face. The Chor always overacted, the Sipahi always looked guilty, and the Mantri always guessed wrong on purpose when the Chor was their best friend.
