Play
The game begins with some kind of fair settlement between each team to decide who starts first. The first team tosses the Frisbee, aiming it towards a glass bottle that is placed on top of the stake opposite them. Then the other team throws the Frisbee at the first team's bottle. Points are scored when the bottle is knocked off the stake, the receiving team fails to catch the Frisbee, or the Frisbee is thrown in a way that it is uncatchable (see Scoring). Play continues until one team has reached a set amount of points (typically 21), beating their opponent by at least two points.

Famous quotes containing the word play:
“If you think dope is for kicks and for thrills, you’re out of your mind. There are more kicks to be had in a good case of paralytic polio or by living in an iron lung. If you think you need stuff to play music or sing, you’re crazy. It can fix you so you can’t play nothing or sing nothing.”
—Billie Holiday (1915–1959)
“And we shall play a game of chess,
Pressing lidless eyes and waiting for a knock upon the door.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“when the moment comes
we’ll talk turkey,
we’ll shoot words straight from the hip,
we’ll play it as it lays.
Yes,
when death comes with its hood
we won’t be polite.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
