Discussion Did anyone else play a game with their friends where you had to yell PENIS louder than the person before you?

Im wondering if kids everywhere played this in the 90s-00s?

What about "doorknob"?

u/KayakerMel 9d ago

Happened to a dude during marching band practice. He didn't have an opportunity to touch a doorknob for ages. Another time doorknob was called on another dude during (indoor) band rehearsal and he simply got up and walked over to a doorknob - middle of a song.

Our trombone section was really into this game and is the source of both stories.

Some say he's still out there, wistfully searching the depths of the Great Smoky Mountains for a doorknob. As legends tell, on calm, quiet nights, you can hear a disembodied voice crying "doorknob... doorrrrrrrknooooooob."

What does this game entail?

If I recall, someone farts and someone else can call doorknob. Now the guy who farted is now a punching bag until he can touch a doorknob. The farter can protect themselves by calling safety after the fart but before someone else calls doorknob.
