Geek Olympics Round 1 – Potathrow
Players:4 (2 to throw and 2 to dodge)
Aim:
To dodge the potato
Equipment:
Fake Potato (For Extreme Potathrow use a real spud)
Corridor
Understanding or absent housemates
Method:
The 2 throwers stand at either end of the corridor.
The 2 dodgers run around like headless chickens in the middle, and try to dodge the potato that is being thrown by the throwers.
When you get hit, you must obey the following handicaps:
Hit 1 - 1 hand must touch a wall at all times
Hit 2 - 2 hands must touch the same wall at all times
Hit 3 - 1 hand must touch each wall at all times
Hit 4 - As hit 3, but 1 foot must also touch a wall at all times
Hit 5 - YOU LOSE!
Once there is a winner, the throwers and dodgers swap, so you end up with 2 contenders for the final
The game is repeated as a Grand Showdown, which is normally more violent, as the throwers remember one of the dodgers chucking a surprisingly hard potato at them.
Results:
ChrisPy vs Chris - ChrisPy won
Eddie vs JoJo - Eddie won
ChrisPy vs Eddie - ChrisPy won
Conclusions:
Fun game for all the family, apart from those with asthma, those under 5, and those with Potato-Phobia
