Tug of War with Pulley
| Origin | Winter Camp XVI (1992) |
| The Story | The idea is pretty simple. The goal is for two teams to pull hard enough to lift the other team into the air. Of course, in practice it's not that practical. First, you need a fairly serious rope to have 18-25 people pulling on it, which then means a hardcore pulley and a good place to attach it. We managed to come up with all those things, but the game was still somewhat disappointing as people let go of the rope rather than be hoisted aloft. Following the game, the rope was attached to truck and the Donohue brothers were lifted into the air using the pulley. Ron took it in stride, while Steve was clearly very uncomfortable. |
| Veracity | True as I remember it. |
