Similar to one's frame of reference, a guy uses a game-of-reference to help jog his memory of something important that has happened, but he can't exactly remember when it happened or the circumstances surrounding it.

Tom: "Huh? It's 7:15 and we usually don't start until 9. When did we change it?"
John: "Don't you remember me telling you Sunday?"
Tom (after thinking a minute using football as a game-of-reference): "Ohhh ya, that was during the Packers/Cardinals playoff game. I remember you telling me right after regulation ended."
