The game GROUNDIES!!
Posted: Mon Jul 30, 2007 5:09 am
Next to the school is a park with a moderatly sized playground structure so we created a game which is sweeping Denver by storm!!
"Groundies" is a variation of tag where the "it" is blinded (closed eyes) while on the playground equiptment, if "it" is off the structure and on the ground "it" can open it's eyes and see around.
The people not "it" are safe if on the playground stuff, but if they get on the ground then they are not safe. (explained later)
So "it" counts (like always) and looks around then goes after people, as soon as they are off the ground they close their eyes and try to tag people.
The goal is to find a spot that cant be reached easily while your eyes are closed but also is not accessable from the ground becuase the "it" could get you if they are on the ground (eyes open).
Now to become it you either need to get tagged or get called "groundies" on. If the "it" calls "groundies!" then anyone on the ground, the next it is decided however you like (we do rock paper sissors)
Anywho..its childish i know, but baked its a great way to pass time. Comments/critiques ect. galore
