Egg Toss
Teams compete against each other with eggs.
The game of egg toss is normally played at large outside gatherings. Players are recommended to wear old clothes while playing the game and may even want to bring an extra set of clothes to the party.
The group divides up into two or more teams. All teams need to be of equal size to be fair. Each team then lines up half of their players on each of two sides a corridor many feet across. Players of the same team face each other in sets of 2.
The first player of the team tosses the egg to their team member on the opposite side of the corridor. That person then hands the egg to their team member beside them who has not handled the egg yet. That player then tosses the egg to their team member opposite them on the corridor. To win the game, a team must be the fastest to get the egg from one end of their team to the other without breaking their egg.
In the event that both teams tie, each team member takes a giant step backwards, and the challenge begins again.
Another version of this game involves players passing eggs with spoons from one player to another. In this version, players each place a spoon with the handle held in the players mouth. Once the game begins, players are not allowed to use their hands or their team loses. Players pass the egg from spoon to spoon down their line of team members. It is ordered the exact same way as the version above except instead of tossing eggs to their opposite team members, they must walk or run their eggs across the corridor. Again, eggs may only be carried by the spoons in their mouths and not their hands.
The spoon version may also be played with teams lined up in straight lines. In this variation of the game, teams simply pass the egg to the next person in the line. Again, players are never allowed to touch the eggs with their hands once the game begins.
This game can be a hillarious and fun game. It does tend to be rather messy if you happen to be one of the players that accidentally drops their egg.
