7 Games You Can Play With a Brick

If you have a brick or a pile of bricks, you may be thinking "bricks are really boring."  But you're wrong.   There are probably a million ways to have fun with a brick.   Here are seven of them.

1.  "Brick Tag"

The rules of brick tag are simple:  if you get hit by the brick, you're "it."  You can also play brick freeze-tag, but it is not recommended since a game involving blunt-force trauma to the head doesn't really need to be complicated by not being able to tell if your friends are dead or just not "unfrozen" yet.

2. "Brick Roulette"

Have your friends stand in a circle around you.  Put on a blindfold.  Spin around as fast as you can while holding the brick with your arm fully extended to build up maximum force.  Let go.

3. "Jump Over the Brick"

Put the brick on the ground.  Jump over it.  See how high you can jump.

4. "Truth or Brick"

Tell the truth or get the brick.

5. "Drop the Brick"

Find something tall.  Go up on top of it.  Drop the brick.

6. "Brick Conquerers"

Fuck the brick up.  Hit it with a stick, stab it with a sword, set it on fire - the goal is to inflict maximal harm on the brick.

  8. Fuck the brick up. haha I love it. I'm a personal fan of the brick-walk (it's like a cake-walk but you win a brick), musical bricks (whoever doesn't get a brick gets beat by the people who did), and volleybrick (good luck, fuckers).

  15. I attend a kung fu class where we throw a volleyball around and full speed and you have to catch it, or do pushups... When the game gets going, we have as many as 4 volleyballs in the air... and they can all come at you at the same time... we call it Focus Ball... imagine FOCUS BRICK... it would make kung fu training a lot more interesting than it already is :D

  21. I think I've read this post two or three times now, every time I cannot stop laughing. Brick tag is my favorite by far, the expressions on the people running away are just so good

  22. The problem with truth or brick is that oftentimes it ends up being truth and brick, giving weight (and shape) to the adage that the truth hurts. Like a brick.
