Double Dare 2009

The very first Rides Department Double Dare was held on Tuesday June 16, 2009 and it was a huge success. It was so huge in fact, that we will probably hold another Double Dare Competition at the end of the season, so stay tuned for more details!

At approximately 8:00 pm, two teams faced off in a head-to-head competition of strength, courage and of course, the main ingredient - SLIME.

North Team (from left to right): Michael Son, Nadine Pasterczyk, Andrew Easton, Barbara Everett

South Team (from left to right): Gladstone McKenzie, Cassandra (CJ) Niziolek, Derek (Deebs) Bialka, Keno Kerr

RULES OF THE GAME: “I'm going to ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, or think the other team hasn't got a clue, you can dare them to answer it for double the dollars. But be careful, because they can always double dare you back for four times the amount, and then you'll either have to answer the question or take the physical challenge.”

It was a wild and crazy two rounds full of water balloon trash can cymbal popping and pie pants throwing along with toilet paper mummy wrapping. The competition was so close that it had to be decided by one final head-to-head challenge where competitors filled a plastic cup by smashing raw eggs on their foreheads! In the end, the South Team was victorious and off to the Obstacle Course!

CJ pedals her way through the first obstacle. Derek is really digging in that nose to find that flag! Then before he knows it, he's in the slime tunnel!
Gladstone is looking for a flag in "Snakes in the Blizzard River Trough".
Keno flies down the slime slide to grab the last flag and the South Team wins!
