Mah Jong

Mondays 1:00 pm

Friendly Monday Mah Jong game starting at 1PM. Bring your American Mah Jong card!

Mah jong is a fun and popular game that tasks you with solving a tile-matching, or as Julia Roberts said 'Making order out of chaos'. What does the name mah jong even mean? And how can you play mah jong online? Well, pull up a chair and enter our game!  

In Chinese, mah jong literally translates to “sparrows.” Sparrows are depicted on traditional sets of mah jong tiles, and there are several theories as to why the game is named after the birds—such as that the clattering of moving mah jong tiles resembles the chattering of sparrows or that the name is a reference to Chinese philosopher Confucius and his love of birds.
