The Battle has begun!!!
This is our first joint event between the Glasgow HK society and Strath HK society and I was really excited to see the Rival societies going head to head.
Once everybody arrived we introduced ourselves and split each other into teams.
Game no.1 - Doctor Doctor - involved team members linking hands in a scrambled fashion, and the objective is to unscramble themselves in the quickest time
Game no.2 - Bang - 2 teams go face to face and try to eliminate the opposing team using a paper system. This game was generally aimed at a smaller audience and due to the massive turn-out, resulted unfortunately in communication problems and some confusion.
Game no.3 - People Charades - similar to Chinese whisper except rather than passing a word, a team is given an action which is passed along instead.
Game no.4 - Chubby Bunny - this is a classic competition of endurance. Competitors are given marshmallows every round and must clearly pronounce "Chubby Bunny", otherwise they are eliminated. I took part in this personally and was put off with anything sweet in the following days.
The scores were displayed on the main projector screen, and the winning team was announced! prizes were given and "Gangnam style" was played as a victory dance :P

Finale!!! - The competitive nature of this event was strongest in our final game - TUG OF WAR - we used a rope which was longer than the vertigo hall itself! which gave more than enough room for everybody in both teams to participate. On the Strath team Mack devised a plan to tug the rope on his count, as a result Strath won the first 2 tug-of-war sets. At this point Strath seemed to be the definite winners, however the glory was short-lived as Glasgow huddled to form a counter-attack; which lead to their victory of tug of war (3-2).
Our overall goal on behalf of both gu and strath society was for members from both societies to mingle, socialize and most importantly - enjoy themselves ;)
Special thanks again to Lesley who made us the most awesome donuts! :D
We'd also like to thank Head for taking the time to capture most of the highlights of the night
Round 1 is over, but stay tuned for updates for a potential round 2 :D
