Last night we did something most of you probably have never done. We had a Merkin Making Party. We are going to a frisbee tournament for the 4th of July weekend and our team name is "The Merkins". I'm still not sure who came up with this idea in the first place, but I have heard the word passed around here and there.
The tournament is called "Potlatch" and the idea is that we give a "gift" of some sort to the other team. Our gift this year is a game of "Pin the Merkin on the Manhood". You've played pin the tail on the donkey at some point in your life; this is just a new variation. The winner of the game gets a huge jug of a fresh, mouthwatering Mojito on the field to share if they wish, with their team.
Apparently we all are going to "wear" a merkin during play, which is bound to add a few interesting photos to our collection. After pulling out my "art bucket" last night, we came up with a few variations on the merkin that you might be interested in. We've even named some of them, such as "Grandma's Merkin, Surfin Merkin, Super Merkin, Muscle Merkin, and Married Merkin. Cheers to a new party game everyone.
