"Thats really cleaver," Frank says quietly before raising his hand to volunteer to be a piñata. "I'm not necessarily the fastest but I'm very nimble and hard to catch." He's says confidently.

"That's really cleaver," Frank quietly says before raising his hand to volunteer to be a piñata. "I'm not necessarily the fastest but I'm very nimble and hard to catch." He's says confidently. Unfortunately, by the time Frank gets his hand up, Coach Driver has already picked three others to be piñatas and ignores him.

Johnny groans, but readies himself to run. He and the three other piñatas move to the center of a large circle, created by the players. The coach walks amongst them, which includes Johnny, a younger, long legged, out of town kid, a young native woman and a rather handsome middle aged man, who looks vaguely familiar to Frank, but he can't place him.

"On your marks, get set!" The coach pauses to see if he can catch anyone starting too early, he smiles, knowing everyone is used to him testing reflexes and listening skills. "GO!"

OOC: Frank's plan of action? Mind you, violence is frowned upon in this game.

Frank starts after the man since he knows Johnny will just toy with him. He's going to try to head him off while he's avoiding other chasers and distracted.

Frank starts after the man since he knows Johnny will just toy with him. He's going to try to head him off while he's avoiding other chasers and distracted. His plan works! Frank manages to snag a ticket located in the center of the man's back. Upon opening it, it reads, "Pick One, Gift basket | 1 free month rental from Belle's Stables."

Nobody has been able to get anything off of Johnny yet. He's so fast on his feet and able to juke, duck and dodge that he almost seems inhuman.

Frank looks around to see who still has the center one in their back preferably the long legged one.
oO(maybe the lanky one will be clumsy)Oo
OOC: will use the same tactic of letting others distract before heading them off to grab the one off of their back.

Frank lunches forward, anticipating the guy trying to dodge and grabs the ticket from dead center of the man's back. He happily walks back and opens the ticket. 'two credits.'

About two minutes later, after Johnny finally gives up, he comes back, twenty seven credits in hand. That's probably more credits than Johnny has held his entire life. "Look what I got!" he calls out excitedly. "What'd you score?"

"Still need to get one more," Frank looks Johnny up and down with a chuckle in his tone. "Do you have any prizes left on you to grab? Would definitely save me some time and energy." Then he looks back at what he's already gotten. "I got either a gift basket or free month rental from Belle's stable. We'll if I'm reading this right."
OOC:when Johnny comes over to see what Franks prize is Frank will grab one off of Johnny's vest for his second prize.

Johnny frowns, rotating in a circle to show that he has no more tickets, "You got your two. The coupon thing for gift or rentals. You also got two credits." He shows his two tickets, "I got a total of twenty seven credits. So, that makes a total of one of two expensive prizes and twenty nine credits. Let's go cash these, but we have to figure out what the expensive one is."

"OK let's go hope you had fun. How did they catch you in the first place?" Frank's asked jokingly.

"I was the only one not caught. You already had your two prizes and so did I, so I just let them catch me." he replies. He thinks for a moment and grins, "You better get changed for the greased pole climb."
