The spud game is believed to have originated in the United States during the early 20th century, primarily as a children's playground game. It typically involves players forming a circle and one player being designated as "it," who tries to tag others after a countdown.

Over time, various regional adaptations and rules have emerged, making it a popular pastime across different communities.
