The kids were lucky the police weren’t called.Īpparently this is a very popular game. I can’t even imagine what other drivers were thinking. On top of that, the kids were blindfolded. My concern was that it was late at night and the kids were dropped off in some not so safe neighborhoods. In some ways, it sounds like a fun innocent game. The winning team is the group that gets back to the original location first. The idea of the game is by using street signs alone (and not GPS) the dropped off kids must call their teammates and describe their location so they can be picked up. Once they get out of the car, they can take off the blindfolds. They get into a car and are driven to an unknown location and dropped off. Once you are in your groups, one or two people are blindfolded from each team. (I guess you can play solo, but thankfully at least my daughter insisted on going with a friend).
