‘6-7’ term kids can’t stop chanting might have historical roots dating back to the Shakespeare era

The slang term '6-7', which has no real meaning, is currently popular among children, but some believe it has historical roots dating back to medieval times, specifically a dice game called Hazard, now known as craps. David Marcus, a Fox News Digital columnist, suggests that '6-7' was associated with risk and worry in the past, citing its appearance in Chaucer's works and a line from Shakespeare's 'Richard II'. Despite its historical context, the term's current usage among children has led to police in Indiana issuing fake tickets as a humorous way to manage the trend.
