A ring that encircles the hob scores two points for the thrower; a ring closer to the hob than an opponent's scores one. It has been said that the game was played in Roman-occupied Britain (1st-5th century), or it may have been developed in medieval Britain, perhaps when peasants heated and bent horseshoes into rings and tossed them at iron pegs driven into the ground. Later, in the United States and Canada, horseshoe pitching became the more popular game."
