PENNY CAN NIGHT @ HOOPS-n-HOPS

The fun game from COUGARTOWN comes to HOOPS!

All proceeds will go to the Multiple Sclerosis Society!
Participants will receive a FREE T-SHIRT, the bracket tournament winners will get a COOL PRIZE as well!
In case you want to practice, the rules to the game are as follows:

1. Clean & Empty paint can, place it 10-20 feet away and then throw pennies into it.
Penny goes in the can, you get a point.
Doesn’t, you don’t.
First one to 5 wins.

2. Sink a penny everyone sings "PENNY CAN!" in a high voice.

3. Three in a row you say "PENNY CAN!" in a robot voice with robot motions.

4. Bounce-outs get a "Stache-Attack!", where another player gets to draw a mustache on your face with washable marker.
If you HAVE one, or someone ALREADY drew one on you,
then you get a "Crazy Brow".

5. Rim shot means the shooter’s earlobe gets flicked.

6. If you make the toss while moving you sing "MOVING TARGET PENNY CAN!”. Counts for TWO points.

7. SUDDEN DEATH PENNY CAN: In case of a tie score, players stand far away from the can. One person (not in the game) asks trivia questions to each player. Get the answer right you move a step closer to the can. Resume throwing pennies until a someone wins.

 

This is a fun way to give to charity!
After the event, the PENNY CANS will be placed behind the bar @ HOOPS, and, when they fill up, we will choose another great LOCAL CHARITY to donate the money to!

Hope to see you TUESDAY, JUNE 28th @ HOOPS!
