Spin the Bucket
This game was originally thought up by my friend Becky and I in eigth grade. It was planned for a party I was having. It never got played at the party. The first time it was played was at music mountain in 01. It was a revised edition of spin the bucket, with new activities and a coffee can. Hopefully it will be a tradition carried on at music mountain for years to come.
materials:
- deep bucket, coffee can, jar
- paper
- scissors
- nail polish
- readily available supply of grass
- pillows and blankets with kerchiefs to make sumo gear
- lots o' toilet paper
- silly string
- tango music
- make-up
- spoon with spoonable food
- markers
Rules
- 1.preparation:
- Each person chooses one partner. Partners should be boy/girl unless there is some special reason they shouldn�t be. It should be very special. Make a list of activities. Cut out each activity on a separate piece of paper and put them in a bucket or a jar. Partners sit next to each other in a circle with the other pairs (just make a circle, making sure to sit next to your partner)
- 2.procedure:
- Each pair gets a turn going around the circle starting with whichever pair wants to start first. The partners spin the bucket or jar or coffee can.
The first piece of paper that falls out of the jar is the activity they must do. They fulfill this activity with their partner. Each activity that was already done must be put aside unless the majority of people participating in the game wish to put it back in the bucket. While an activity is being done the other pairs may continue the game if desired or watch the activity.
- 3.Refusing the activity:
- If a group or one partner refuses to do the activity then they must drink from the �Cup of Life� which the rest of the participants will make for them.
- 4.Stipulations:
- New activities may be added at any time. If there are more boys or more girls then there will have to be same sex pairing, however these pairs are allowed to refuse to do "iffy" activities and will have to spin again to get a new activity. Whether the actvity is "iffy" or not is determined by majority rule and should be predetermined.
