Team 3: Gurj, Matt and Meredith went with a JERSEY SHORE theme. Here's Snooki (complete with Boof), The Situation (complete with THE Situation) and JWoww complete with no pants!. AMAZING.
Jeff hooked us up with Toy Fair badges (with other people's names on them - so we had to pretend that we were TOY BUYERS!!!) and set out with us to explore all the booths! We got to visit the Cranium pavilion! This is pretty much the closest Meredith's ever come to a religious pilgrimage.
Sure, sure. It sounds easy enough. Just use the blob of clay to sculpt three DIFFERENT things that your team has to guess in 60 seconds. No biggie, right? Until that timer starts ticking away and then the only question is...
Major controversy erupted when someone drew a "all teams compete" card and each team had to select a member to try to get their teammates to guess the clue "Jewish." Here's Meredith holding up the winning drawing, in front of her all-Jewish team.
Just when everyone thought things couldn't get any gayer, Javier picked me up, spun me around and then pushed me face-down (ass-up!) onto the hassock...
His dip turned even more sensual when he lowered me slowly to the ground in his manly arms...and then proceeded to try to...um...hmmm...make me gay through hypnosis?
On Team Twig N' Berries, Siege and I elected Javier as our defacto performer. His over-the-top willingness to abuse whomever was his puppet made him a no-brainer. Here's me captured in the midst of pulling my "WTF" face when Javier simultaneously dipped me and hiked up my shirt.
The tension in the room was unbelievable. (PS - If, perchance, you ever find yourself anywhere in the vicinity of Fatty, and you also, perchance, decide to take out your camera and take a picture and Fatty is not in the frame, there's is a 100% chance that he will lean into the frame at the last second and make an awesome face.)
Team #2: Amanda's friend whose name I forgot (sorry!), Amanda and LionMane (keeping things real in his Beetlejuice pants!). Oh, and Ellen also joined this team but I don't think she'd shown up yet!
About halfway through the game, someone noticed that all six of us were dating someone who looked a lot like them. Which meant Cranium was temporarily put on hold for a new game: The "I Look Most Like the Person I'm Banging" Game! Third Place: Scott and his boyfriend!
