Icebreaker Game of the Month - Ultimate Rock, Paper, Scissors

All particpants stand up and face one person close to them. These pairs play a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors (Rock smashes scissors, scissors cut paper, paper covers rock). The loser of each pair crawls under the winners' legs and stands behind the winner with their hands on the winner's shoulders. These 2 participants now are one group or chain.

The group seeks out another individual or group and plays another round of Rock, Paper, Scissors. The person in the front of each group is the only one who does the hand movements. The participants of the losing group crawls under each of the winning groups' legs and stands behind the winners with their hands on the winners' shoulders.

The chains of each group get longer and longer as the game repeats itself, until there is only one long chain. The person in the front of the chain is the winner of Ultimate Rock, Paper, Scissors.

Game is great as an icebreaker, requires no supplies or equipment, works best with 10 or more people and takes about 10 minutes depending on how many people play.
