The Telephone Game

So today my favorite class talked me into taking a break from our studies to play the game of telephone. For those of you who don't know the game of telephone, it's a listening game that is actually quite simple. One person thinks of a sentence and then whispers it into someones ear and then that person passes along what they heard into the next person's ear until you reach the end of the "telephone line". Then that person has to say the sentence out loud to the class.

Well as you all know my favorite student Denny started the sentence, "We just made a statement."

By the end of the telephone line, Sally announced the sentence was, "We just ate steak man!"

Now, to give you the full impact of why that sentence is SO hysterical is because everything somehow revolves around steak--as in that slab of beef cooked rare, medium, or well-done. Koreans love it and it's somewhat rare to have it. Steak is usually saved for very special occasions as it's very expensive. So I've had team names be Team Steak vs. Team BBQ, students who have wanted to change their English name to Steak, there are steak flavored potato chips, steak flavored sunflower seeds...really the possibilities are endless.
