Ever been dunked in a dunking machine?

flaps · May 5, 2006

I have. Fully clothed (jeans, etc. but no shoes) a number of times years ago at a fireman's bbq. Fun (and cold after dark

)!

You?

Buckalew11 · May 5, 2006

Never. However, I like to be the one doing the dunking!! It'd be fun to dunk you, flaps!!!

TheOtherVillainess · May 5, 2006

Yup..at my mom's church's Oktoberfest party a few times in High School. I loved it because I got to heckle the people throwing the balls at the target.

2 thoughts:

1) I wonder why...
2) How good is Buck's throw...

No, but this year our youth group picnic will be having a dunking booth. I'm just soooo bummed that I have a fractured back and can't do it :rotfl:

It should be interesting..we're trying to get the pastor in..but I think his toupee would fall off :rotfl2:

I loved having the seat drop out from under me "unexpectedly". I don't remember whether I "heckled" or not (I was, I think, around 12 years old or so).

Nothing like looking like a drowned rat in front of all your co-workers :rolleyes:

Plus it was cold that day

So what's the story? :teeth:

reasons for dunking flaps:
1) she is too elusive (LOL)
2) she writes some poems I don't always "get" (so it'd be a "take that!")
3) she would be having fun cause she likes the surprise
4) too watch her flap around in the booth
5)cause it is just fun

about that arm...yep, played 3rd base. You're as good as "all washed up"!!

kimmikayb · May 5, 2006

yep many years ago at a Firemen Festival. It was fun but I got tired of the cold, wet jeans.

AmazingGrace · May 5, 2006

No, but I'd really like to someday!! It's always looked like loads of fun to me!! One of those silly things I've always wanted to do.

1) and yet she's always where she is
2) if there's anything to get, she surely doesn't get it either so you're in some kind of company
3) she'd be surprised if Buck could hit the target...

4) she'd flap her gums taunting Buck on her bad throws...

5) ya know, if I was a bettin' gal I'd bet you were one of the ones who enjoyed "baptizing" all her pals in the pool (in the name of the Father -dunk-, the Son -dunk-, the Holy Ghost -dunk-, the birds -dunk-, the trees -dunk-, the flowers -dunk-, etc. -dunk-, etc. -dunk-, etc. -dunk-dunk-dunk-dunk-dunk.....

)

I played ball too, so maybe after you got through dunkin' me, I could return the favor. :teeth:

<--Never been dunked, but if I was up there, the line would be very long and the charity would make a lot of money!!

Hmm...
1) sounds like you are related to Yogi Berra
2)yeah, but what KIND of company??? :rotfl:

3)sounds like a dare to me... :teeth:

4)OK, so there'd be a bad throw or two cause I'm old and rusty! :guilty:

5)Actually, I was the one getting dunked. There was this time once, when I thought Jeff K...oh never mind... :rotfl:

How dorky would I look sittin' up there holding my nose? Getting set straight own into the water must cause water to forceful go up the ol' snoz! :rotfl:

TheOtherVillainess · May 5, 2006

I think when Mom's church did it, the sr. pastor (at the time) got in there in full regalia at least once. And I'm sure the (then assoc. now sr)pastor got in there also. :rotfl2:

I know when I did it, I was always afraid the seat would suddenly fall out from under me, whether somebody hit the target or not. The booth they used seemed to be rather rickety and not exactly stable to me.

I am a pastor and once did a stint in a dunking booth as a fundraiser :rolleyes:

. No toupee though... all natural hair here :teeth:

flaps · May 5, 2006

Mister Incredible - perhaps, but the line for ElastiGirl would be longer, and she'd make more money :jester:

TOV - the one I was on was rickety too :scared:

Zippa - good sport

Buck -

1) a distant relation to Yogi Bear, but don't tell Disney
2) naturally who's on first, but you don't know
3) a double-DIS-dog dare
4) or two? methinks you're being modest

- probably a whole lot more than just two (and I can't do just two, so let's say two hundred) - oh, and I wouldn't call you Rusty, Buck
5) LOL - I only got "baptized" like that at girl's camp - BUT... I almost got to go skinny dipping at boy's camp one summer :earseek:

(yeah, it's not quite as bad as it sounds

)

No need to hold your nose to look dorky.......

Nah, she would be no fun, she would just stretch her legs so she wouldn't get wet! :rotfl2:

and Violet would disappear and then...disappear
and Dash, well, he could probably simultaneously be the dunker and dunkee

ok, I guess we'll put you up there, but not in the hobo-suit...
