Hotdog Arms

Details

This game is… not trying to change the world.

Hotdog Arms is a ridiculously simple, all-play elimination game built on one very important question: how many arms will the hotdog hold up in the air?

Each round, everyone holds up one arm, two arms, or no arms. Then the hotdog appears and reveals its answer. If you match the hotdog, you’re out.

That’s it. That’s the game.

There’s no strategy. No skill. Just a room full of students making confident decisions about a hotdog with arms, and immediately regretting them.

Play until one person remains and crown them the “Top Dog” or the "Wienner" or whatever ridiculous pun you want to use.

It’s weird. It’s unpredictable. And for reasons no one can fully explain, students absolutely love it.
