"Hello everyone!" Anakin boomed through his megaphone. Was it absolutely necessary for him to be so loud so early?

No, but Anakin was mean.

"Today we are playing the very famous--" in camp circles, maybe? "--game called Burst the Balloons! As you can see, Beaker and I have scattered balloons around the park."

Beaker meeped at Anakin.

"--and filled them with a variety of surprises. Oh?" He grinned. "Well done for that initiative, Beaker. The balloons are filled with surprises. Working in teams, you must race to break all of your balloons before the other teams do! Listen for your names!"

Arrive and Mingle

What a bright (so bright, why so bright), beautiful, hot day full of screaming cicadas! Grab a seat and a snack and wonderful what fresh hell Anakin is about to unleash on you!

Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[sith_happened]

Get your amazing shirt! Wonder if they are actually getting worse!

Play!

Race around the park and find the balloons! Each one, in addition to a moddable, generally unpleasant surprise (think shaving cream, slime, glitter, tuna fish salad, very confused Muppet goldfish), also has a flag inside. First team to ten flags wins, so each person goes through twice.

As the game progresses, the balloons become harder to reach: Beaker has also put some in trees, floated them into the pond, placed them on top of the slide, under the bleachers, etc.

Oh, and you cannot break the balloons with your hands. You must jump on them with both feet, sit on them, crush them between your knees, or pair up and break them with your stomachs!

[OOC: RNG says that it goes PIRATES, JETS, SHARKS and then BUGS, so let chaos reign in your teams as you get there!]

Talk to Anakin!

Maybe not if you're covered in tuna salad.

Enjoy the noise, all you fake hungover people!
