PUMP, PUMP, POLE-AWAY
ONE PERSON BENDS OVER AND WRAPS HIS ARMS AROUND A
TELEPHONE POLE. ANOTHER PERSON BENDS OVER AND
WRAPS HIS ARMS AROUND HIS WAIST. THIS CONTINUES UNTIL
A CHAIN OF ABOUT 10 TO 12 PEOPLE IS FORMED. THEN
SOMEONE GETS A RUNNING START AND LEAPS OVER THE PEOPLE.
THE WINNER IS THE ONE WHO LEAPS THE FARTHEST.
