Fun group game that has been played many times over the year. Get a group together and play "IN THE HAT". Get a group together, either autogenerate names or think of your own - the funnier the better. When the timer starts, the teams compete to describe the person. No "rhymes with". You're allowed one pass per round. Best teams win.
