Bust
Fill a couple
hundred balloons with helium and slips of paper redeemable for prizes
or cash, or (10 percent) 'Thank You Please Try Again'. The prizes can
be a free Coke if Coca Cola is helping sponsor event. You could have
an early bird prize about 'Guess The Number of Balloons'. That could
go on for a couple of hours, then the prizes start to be drawn. Fill
a room with these balloons, so patrons walk in and find them-selves
in a latex obstacle course. They can pull one balloon outside, you write
their name on it with magic marker. Then they put it back until the
end of the night. During the day, have patrons guess how many balloons
are in the room. The closest wins a prize at the end of the day.
Variation 1: Put
money into 100 helium-filled balloons and sell them for $10 each. Denominations:
One balloon contains $100, two-$50.00, two-$20, two-$10, two-$5.00 and
the rest $2.00. Sell all 100 and make a total of $548.00.
