Gut Busters: To the tune of Ray Parker Jr’s immortal classic, plank for duration of the Ghostbusters theme, rising for a burpee everytime “Ghostbusters” is said, and plankjacks for the keyboard breaks leading up to “I ain’t afraid of no ghosts”.
Tha Thang
Tombstone Toss: 16 pax split into an Orange Team and a Black Team. Mosey up to the scoreboard where two tombstones (coupons) awaited the teams. Each team alternated through 8 members 2x, heaving the tombstone as far as humanly possible. The team that heaved it the furthest was the winner. Lesson: In the words of the immortal Denzel Washington, always bet on Black.
Trick R Treat: The Thang was left to the winds of fate. Pax lined up with Coupons in front of stands at football field. 2 buckets were passed down the line, one containing 32 numbers 10 to 100 (count by ten), and the other containing 32 exercises. Pax chose one exercise and one number per round. Those without costumes added 10% (told ya it mattered), and losing team of the Toss added an additional 10% to the reps chosen (Ex: 10 could be 11 or 12, 50 could be 55 or 60, etc.).
Exercises and Reps included (estimated but likely incorrect):
Curls (30)
Upright Rows (20)
Manatees (10)
Mountain Climbers (80)
Australian Snow Angels in the frost (90)
Fire Hydrants (20)
Spiderman Merkins (50)
Goblet Squats (70)
Falling Triangles (10)
Alabama Ass Kickers (20)
etc…
Moseyed back to the parking lot with 5 left, where the costume wearers got candy, and the wet blankets enjoyed a round of Batwings IC (once again it mattered…get on your Slack people!). Fun was had by all.
