RABBIT

EACH PERSON STANDS NEXT TO ANOTHER SO THAT A SINGLE
FILE LINE IS FORMED WITH THE PEOPLE STANDING SIDE
TO SIDE. THE FIRST PERSON IN LINE KNOWS HOW TO PLAY
THE GAME AND IS TEACHING THE REST OF THEM HOW TO PLAY.
FIRST EVERYONE IS TO KNEEL ON THEIR RIGHT KNEE, THE WHOLE
LINE DOES THIS. THEN EVERYONE IS TO PUT THE RIGHT
FINGER OF THEIR RIGHT HAND STRETCHED OUT IN FRONT OF
THEM ON THE FLOOR. THE PERSON WHO IS TEACHING THEM
THEN GIVES ONE QUICK SHOVE TO THE PERSON NEXT TO HER
WITH HER HIPS AND THE WHOLE LINE ENDS UP FALLING
ON THE FLOOR. IT'S RATHER IMPOSSIBLE TO MAINTAIN
A SENSE OF BALANCE IN THE POSITION ONE IS IN.
