stupid muni idea

I hate to even bump this post, but the title was sufficient, you don't
even need to read the body.

Oh and next time you have a thought, just don't.

It might be an interesting novelty race for a MUni weekend. A bit
expensive if everyone has to buy a set of white overalls specially.

Wouldn't a MUni egg and spoon race be more sensible?

This is an excellent idea.
I was going to push for Unifencing, since no one in my gang likes
hockey, but this is excellent. Thank you.

Of course, mud slinging would be prohibited. 😉

I would love muni fencing!!! I've been fencing for two years and a
combo of uni and fencing would be sweet.

Eggs!?? Don't you care at all for the unborn creature inside? Could be a
future unicyclist ...

Besides, the idea won't work. While muniing you need your moth for
swearing.

My moth is just fine when I MUni (I keep him in a little box so he
doesn't get squashed). I think in an egg/spoon race you usually just
hold it in your hand.

But then again, nothing is too stupid for a unicycling game idea. You
set up the game, and everybody else decides if they want to play, or
take pictures, or run away. There's always room for more silly games.
The ones that seem to work best are the ones that don't cost anything,
don't require specialized equipment, and don't have rules that are
overly complicated. Sumo comes to mind, but is only one example of many
fun things I've done over the years.

I think the most fun I've had on a uni was the Sumo Wrestling that John
Foss hosted at NAUCC at one of the breakout sessions. We did individual
competitions and team competitions. It was really a blast! Exhausting,
too.

(I'll let John fill in the description of the court and the rules of
engagement.)

In my opinion, Sumo was more fun than the flaming hockey because
*involvement is total* in Sumo whereas you spend a lot of time waiting
when playing hockey. Also, it's very surprising how "less good" riders
can best better ones.

It's very physical, though; not like just riding with an egg on a spoon.

Hah! My friend, Andy, an occasional unicyclist, is still suffering from
his injuries sustained several months ago in a *fig* and spoon race. He
damaged a ligament in his shoulder when he was doing a diving roll to
avoid a man dressed as an Arab, and wrapped in a mattress. I kid you
not. Food and spoon races can be very physical indeed.

This would work well in Scotland!

When I go out muni-ing I always come back caked in mud

(except for during the 2-3 weeks of "summer" we get!)

Getting covered in mud is half the fun of muni!

Mud is the ink we use for bodypainting our homage to the muni sport. 🙂

I think whoever is -dirtiest- when they cross the finish line should be
winner.

Sensible eh? I've seen pictures of it being done. Only it wasn't
proper MUni but just a grass field.
