Planning a Festivus party

Submitted by Fieberg on 1 December, 2005 - 11:13am.

I am planning a Festivus party this weekend for coworkers. I made a pole, sent out an "airing of grievances" form for people to fill out ahead of time, and am currently making up Feats of Strength Challenge cards (that will allow party-goers to challenge others to feats of strength).

Here is where I need your help. I want to come up with interesting feats of strengths that will work for both adults and kids (there will be several small children ranging from 3 to about 8 and I think the challenges may help keep them entertained). So far, I have a list of things that would be easy to implement (e.g., thumbwrestling, leg wrestling, stare contest, perhaps a "holding ones breath contest"). Unfortunately, I think these feats are rather lacking in creativity. I am reaching out to the larger Festivus commuity for ideas. Any help would be greatly appreciated (you can email me at johnfieberg@msn.com). Thanks!
