Who says you can’t relive your childhood? This Saturday, 90 students got to do just that as they participated in Fairfield’s version of the ever-favorite Nickelodeon game show, “Wild and Crazy Kids.”
Proudly decked out in outrageous costumes, 19 teams of five gathered on the Quad ready to compete as spectators cheered them on. The first event required team members to pop balloons on a tarp covered with oil. Other events included flip-cup, in which team members had to drink marinara sauce and then flip over their empty cups.
This was a new event, sponsored by the Inter Residence Hall Assembly (IRHA).
“Old Nickelodeon shows are always fun to watch so we decided to give this event a try,” said Dan Gorman, presidemt of IRHA.
Prizes of $250, $175 and $150 were awarded to the top three teams, which were Black and Decker, The Heat and How Ya Doin.
“IRHA was very pleased with the enthusiasm of the students and the outcome of the event in general,” said Gorman. “We will most definitely be repeating the event next year, but we will also be making organizational changes since we now know how it will run and what to expect.”
