The Hunger-ish Games

MORNING OF APRIL 26, 2012

I remember I was with a large-ish group of people and we were supposed to be taking part in big game of some sort. We split into two teams and ran off into the woods from two separate points. Each team was racing to reach some particular destination.

If opposing team members saw you as you ran through the woods, they'd try to catch you and tag you out. The goal was to reach the destination with the most surviving members. This game was actually being touted as being a tie-in to the Hunger Games craze. Like, getting "tagged out" was like you were a "tribute" who'd been "killed" in the arena.

It was pretty hectic and intense, running through the woods, trying to reach the destination as quickly as possible while trying to take the time to decimate the other teams numbers (and avoid being taken out at the same time). I remember a lot of close calls, running like crazy from opponents, but then I woke up.
