Games With Peeps: We have a tie for first place, with two variations of "Peeps Jousting." Sir Lancelot would be proud. FIRST PRIZE Malkav2136: This is a very fun game to play with your peeps. Works best with the traditional birdie-looking peeps. This is called "Peep Joust". -First, grab two peeps. If you can get them in different colors, all the better. -Then, stick them both onto a toothpick, one on each end. -Next, find a microwave oven. -Fourth, put them in it. -Set it for a couple of minutes, and hit the go button. RULES: 1. They should both be about the same amount onto the toothpick. 2. Whichever one engulfs the other first wins!! Important note- As soon as one of them wins, stop the microwave. Trust me. Other Notes: Make sure you put them on a paper towel, or paper plate, otherwise you can have fun scrubbing. Remember: They come out HOT!! Dont' burn yourself. They are still edible, and still taste VERY good. Acer006: Did you know that everyear thousands of peeps come during easter to joust for the ultimate prize of being named the true easter peep. You can help them out because they can't joust by themselves. They need our help. Take two peeps. insert a toothpick into each one -this serves as their jousting stick. Then place both peeps in the arena (this would be a microwave to us humans). Then turn on the microwave. In a few second the peeps start battling it out to the death as the winner will be the peep that devourers the other one, for there can be only one winner when competing for the prize of True Easter Peep!!!!!! HONORABLE MENTIONS Squinky_40001: Me and my friends had just received a large 6-Pack of little classic yello bird peeps when we realised there was no other food in the house. We all started to much on them when I realised that if you licked them and threw them they stick firmly. I tossed one on the closet door, it stuck and slowly descended. This gave me a great idea, Peep Racing! so for the next hour or so we all raced Peeps down his door. Of course we were all feeling nauseated because we had all eaten about 2 boxes each. kthor: Ah, the versatile Peep, rocking traditional in pink and yellow and now - have you seen? - in blue! When I was living in the crazy 1717 house, every easter was eagerly anticipated so that we could perform one of our patented Microwave Rituals. In the fall, it was the Peter Frampton Glowdown and Sock Swap, where Frampton CD's would get microwaved (try it!) and pairs of socks would be exchanged, to the delight of all, but come April, it was time for the Peep Expansion Contest. Inspired by the act of putting a marshmallow in the 'wave and watching it expand to baseball size before splattering the inside of the box with uncleanable mess, we endeavored to do the same thing with Peeps - yet with a catch! The goal was to expand your peep to the largest size possible without explosion, judged by popular vote. The disciplines of timing, plate position, resting materials (some prefer paper towels, I used the lucky lid to my mom's Tupperware chafing dish), all that and more came into play that fateful day. I lost, sadly, but the sight of my little pink chickie balooning to nearly the size of my fist will nestle in my little hypoglycemic heart forever. jeniferwells: "Chubby Bunny" I never went to camp, but I got a job at a mountain lodge in my teenage years. Everyone I worked with had been to camp, so I picked up on some of the things I'd missed earlier in my development: camp songs, canoeing, and Chubby Bunny. If you have never played Chubby Bunny, you don't know what you're missing. The best time to play is when the wood's too damp to start a campfire, and you have several bags of marshmallows. The game goes like this: Each person puts a whole marshmallow (you have to use the big ones) in his/her mouth and then says, "chubby bunny." Around in the circle go the bags of marshmallows until nobody can say it anymore. naturally, some people can maintain clear speech for longer than others. These are usually the people who can whistle after eating Saltines. Always, a few people drop out after two or three of the spongy treats, and so on until just one person is left. One year we played this with Peeps bunnies. One guy in the circle crammed, and I am not exaggerating, 43 Peeps into his mouth in rapid succession, after each chiming out a cheery, "Chubby bunny!" Luckily we had purchased the peeps in economy packs. What was awesome was that his mouth (especially the corners) stayed fuschia/hot pink for a grand total of six days. By the time the forty-fourth peep entered his mouth, all he could get out was "Huh-hee huhn-hee," which we declared the end of the game. Still, it was an impressive show of sugar absorption, and he didn't wind up with diabetes either. Back To the 1998 Winner's Gallery
