neadodsJust learned this one at the office party, and thought it was fun, so am passing on. All you need is a pen and paper.
1) Come up with a famous phrase that's about 10-20 letters long. In this case, it was "I have not yet begun to fight."
2) Write it, one letter at a time, downwards and then again upwards along the edge of the page, like so (top letters of each line only)
I T
H H
A G
V I
E F
etc.
Now you have x amount of time - I think it was 5 minutes this round - to come up with the name of a famous real or fictional person whose initials match each line. For instance:
Ike Turner
Harry Houdini or Herbert Hoover
Agnes of God (okay, that one's a stretch)
etc.
Read off the names at the end. If you're the only one to come up with a name, 10 points. If more than one person came up with the same name, each gets 5 points.
Most points wins.
