In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Chicha” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 3944 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3502 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Chicha” meme mean?
Showing a hookah in a post sets a specific scene: a couch, a TV screen, friends gathered together, a match playing in the background. The object does not carry a message on its own, but it triggers instant recognition for anyone who has lived through that kind of evening, which makes it a symbol of togetherness more than an object commented on for itself.
Where does the “Chicha” meme come from?
The hookah is a traditional water pipe used to smoke tobacco mixed with molasses and flavourings, burned with charcoal; its use goes back several centuries across the Mediterranean and the Middle East before spreading widely in France, notably through hookah lounges in major cities. On French social media, the object became a visual shortcut for football nights among friends, especially during Champions League evenings where posts stage that familiar setting. The card reuses this symbolic role, without pointing to a specific brand or event, but to a recognisable night-in scene shared by many internet users.
How to use the “Chicha” meme
- Mentioning it to set the scene of a night in with friends in front of the TV.
- Photographing it next to the screen during a Champions League night.
- Referencing it in a caption to sum up a relaxed evening vibe.

The reprint of the “Chicha” card
The “Chicha” card was reprinted as Rare (No. 4,884). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was common. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.
Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.
MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
