    Love to use this game at the start of a leadership or Initiative session :). Great for getting names for participants and myself to get to know the group.

    Also run it with a timed version so beginning of challenges for the session to see how quickly we can get around the circle, essentially a combination of Toss a Name game and Warp Speed.

    Love this variation Mark that involves the whole group naming a participant who receives the Rubber Chicken.. genius way of not putting anyone on the spot!
