From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 [gcide]:
Horseshoe \Horse"shoe`\, n.
1. A shoe for horses, consisting of a narrow plate of iron in
form somewhat like the letter U, nailed to a horse's hoof.
[1913 Webster]
2. Anything shaped like a horsehoe, such as a U-shaped bend
in a river.
[1913 Webster]
3. (Zool.) The Limulus or horsehoe crab.
[1913 Webster]
4. pl. A game in which horseshoes or horseshoe-shaped objects
(usually made of metal) are thrown at either of two stakes
fixed in the ground at a distance of 30 to 40 feet apart.
The player stands at or near one stake and throws several
the horseshoes at the other stake. Points are scored when
the player throws the horseshoe so that it surrounds the
stake; fewer points are scored if the horseshoe is close
to but not surrounding the stake. The players take turns
and the first player to achieve the target score wins; as,
"almost" only counts with hand grenades or in horseshoes.
