Setup

Everyone needs to stand up and wear their socks just over their toes so that they flop off the toe at least 4 inches.

How to Play

On the count of three, all players need to try to step on everyone else’s floppy socks and hope that they will move their foot so that their sock will come off. Players need to try to do this without their own floppy sock coming off. Note, players cannot pull other players' socks off, they can only stand on them and hope the other player moves, thereby taking off their floppy sock. Once both socks are off, that player is eliminated from the game and the last person with a floppy sock still on their foot wins the game. Note: Some players may try to stay out of the action or not move much as a winning strategy. These are the players you should gang up on!
