Weather To Play
by Now that we're headed into the warm weather seasons Spring & SUMMER! I'm a physical kind of chick so I don't mind getting down & dirty. A good game of volleyball or flag foot ball (both personal favorites) but, I'd love to play some games that really turn up the heat.
While watching Survivor I notice the crazy often grueling tests and work outs these contestants "survive"... So I'm wondering whether or not there are obstacles and challenges that we could do in the real world.
*IDEAS*
Rock Supastar says MANHUNT, to which I choose to add A BEEFED UP version
Juicy says an adaptation on Fear Factor
flomoflipoutmcspazoid also nominates manhunt
OriginalSnob suggests a combination of ALL elements in an extreme challenge with teams!!!
I choose to ignore the fact that it is snowing right now.

I say we do kickball, STAT
Fun N' the sun come Saturday!!!!
Is it unsportmanlike to wear a bathingsuit while playing games?
I am in search of a cute yet modest two piece; and yet the idea of sand in unmentionable places not so appealing...maybe I'll wear a skirt or sundress over it.
So I saw this piece on tv the other day about this sport played in South East Asia...it's called Sepak takraw. I REALLY wanna try it,even if I break my neck, lol!
Interestingly enough Canada actually has it's own Sepak takraw Association. It's similar to volleyball but, the ball is smaller. The rules are you can't touch it with our hands but you can use any other part of your body: head, shoulder, chest, feet, knees...SO AWESOME!

ever see video of this game? It SO awesome!
I almost got fivezero to try this but, then I was distracted by flying confections.
WOW amazing! I was born to play this sport!!! Whenever we used to play volleyball i would stinkin kick the ball and everyone would get mad. Now.... it can really happen?!?!?! haha yessssssss
i say we organize a kickball game...
if you play this game you would get better at soccer too
STILL WANNA ROCK THIS SUKA!
i'll kick all your butts in croquet. i'm not kidding.
Pansy.
Dodgeball and Football.
dodgeball?
I LOVE dodgeball.
Heads up!
*wings dodgeball at unsuspecting bystander*
i was eavesdropping and heard my name. whatever happened to a good old tug of rope? or three legged race? or race with round object in spoon? field day!
I'm an Xtreme kinda chick...but I'm up for the classics. I remember the first time I bit down on some grass scoring a touch down in flag football...GOOD TIMES!
A nice dark manhunt game in a park by someones house that has no cops!
MANHUNT!!!
Seriously I'm up for it but I'm SICK of trying to pull people together for things. I didn't think it had to be a popularity contest just to hang out and do some fun stuff...someone else give it a whirl. I'd love a beefed up version of man hunt with obstacles and insanity!
manhunt sounds like fun. Hey Livy, can you put a game together?
I'm up for Manhunt. I was thinking about it the other night- we need to utilize walkie-talkies when playing it!! I have a really awesome set somewhere.
I think some kind of milder non-death-defying version of fear factor
we can like, eat brussel sprouts and dig for stuff in mud and do jello wrestling
skip all that, and go straight to mud and jello wrestling.
Todd i have a new-found respect for you. The next time i see you, you're getting a hug...
thanks buddy.
I am with this dig for stuff in mud, only I can't decide if it should be just a small container up to the elbows or a kidde pool...where would we get the dirt t mix that much mud?
yeah plus it would have to be... clean.. haha.. i know on fear factor everything is tested and cleaned and disinfected so that nothing will actually harm the participants. I would need that kind of .. preparation..
Ah! so you want it to be Hygenic. We can call it "preparation H". Yeah. That sounds good....on the whole.
I didn't read everything you wrote, because when I read "flag football" and "volleyball" I thought of other great games. Games like soccer and ultimate football.
