This game works best in a church with a baptistry that you’ve filled with milk and the bananas are sunk at the bottom 4 feet down! (I was young when I did this, so don’t email me if you’re offended by this!)
You can use a bathtub or one of those bigger baby pools too, but a 4-foot baptistry is best! (Use powdered milk to save money.)
We had a camera at the entrance to the baptistry, interviewing each “bobber” as they disappeared into the 50-gallon tank for what seemed like minutes before emerging with a banana in their mouth.
Great fun – I did it in 1988, and they’re still talking about it!
