Sardines

Sardines is a popular game of reverse hide-and-seek. One person hides and the rest of the group is released incrementally to find the person and hide with them. This typically results in people being packed into tight spaces, thus the name "Sardines."

Memorable Games
~Hanging game of 2010:

At some point in what I think was 2010, possibly the 2nd half, we played Sardines for FHE. Upon being chosen as the hider, I (Ben Joyce) went down to my car and got my rope that I keep in my trunk. In the Gym or Chapelnasium, there are 2 eyelet hooks on either wall which we usually attach the volleyball net from, so they're about 6 or 7 feet off the ground. I made a quick harness out of the rope by wrapping it around my legs.and I secured the rope to the eyelet. I was thus hanging a good 5 or 6 feet in the air on the wall that is opposite the windows.

With the lights completely turned off in the gym, I was lost in the darkness. For the next 20 minutes or so, I hung there as the church was scoured. After some 10 minutes people wre beginning to question if I had gone out of bounds or if anyone at all was hiding with me. Ms. Mandy Phillips attempted to call my cell phone, but luckily I had turned it off. People began taking out their cell phones to use them as lights and once or twice someone walked right below, lighting the ground with their cell phone.

After about 20 minutes, they started turning the lights on and found me and no one could "join" me so the hiding spot became directly beneath me. As there wasn't a "last" person to find me (nor a first person really) we didn't have any loser to become the hider for the next game. I must admit the rope harness was not terribly comfortable, but it was totally worth it. Somewhere, someone has a photo of this (Katy Lang maybe?), but alas, I do not have it.
