This or That: A game
that requires advance planning. Two players secretly agree on a code word,
for instance, “that,” as one of them leaves the room. The other players
select an object in the room, and ask the player to return. The player who
remained in the room points to various objects, asking, “Is it this book?”
“This flower?” “This picture?” “That basket?” To which the
accomplice replies, “Yes!”

spread but I did get some hits when I “googled” it. Commissioner Dave

Background – I always introduce this cheer with
this talk. Think back to the scene in the original movie where Kevin is
shaving. He takes out the Aqua Velva and rubs it on his hands and places it
on his face. What does he do next?? (Answer – SCREAMS)
Leader – Now follow along with me and do all the
motions.
Take out your Aqua Velva (Pretend to hold bottle in hand)
Shake some into your other hand (Shake bottle into hand)
Rub your hands together (Rub hands together)
