How to play
Place a chair at each end of the room and clear other obstacles to the walls. Divide into two teams and choose one goal post per team to stand on a chair holding a pin. Give one inflated balloon to start play. Teams hit and pass the balloon toward their goal post to have it popped. Most balloons popped in the allocated time wins. Make sure goal posts are careful with the pins.
