The reserving/holding of a chair for the time limit called
-originated in smith's point camp grounds NY

1)you must be sitting in the chair when you call it
2)you must be back down by the time limit called or its void
3)you cant sit anywhere else after you call 20 minutes or the chair you called it on is free

*The largest quantity of time allowed to be called is twenty minutes but you can call anything under that as well
