Not confirmed or denied
Tug-of-war is happening. The rope is invisible. So is the line on the ground. Both teams have a strong conviction they are winning. The referee has not confirmed or denied this.
- You are third from the front. You stopped actually pulling ten minutes ago. How do you look like you are still heaving? Every part of you is performing.
- An hour in, something happens that makes it clear which side has won. Both teams see it at the same time. What is it?
- One kid is doing the play-by-play. Write what they are shouting during the pull. They believe in the game completely. They never mention the rope.
Last year's rope is mounted in the trophy case.
Draw space: Both teams, mid-pull.
The referee has announced that the rope is missing. One kid was the last to hold it. Nothing is found. Write the search, and what the referee puts in the trophy case.
Hand someone the other end of the rope. Start tugging.
