Ultimate Donut

Ultimate donut is a running and throwing game loosely related to the game of ultimate Frisbee. The game of ultimate donut was originally developed at the Hatfield Marine Science Center at Oregon State University in 1974 and has since grown into the fourth most-played American sport in the world, after baseball, basketball, and competitive eating. The rules of the game are comparatively simple, which is a contributing factor to the sport’s popularity. Two teams, consisting of between three and seven players each, line up on opposite sides of a staff lounge or lunchroom. Play is started by one team throwing a donut (usually chosen based on strategic considerations) to the other team. The receiving team then attempts to advance up the lounge by tossing the donut to one another. Each receiving player is required to take a bite of the donut, and no more than seven seconds are allowed before the player must throw to another player or a turnover results. The team losing possession must then eat a turnover, and the other team selects a donut from the box and begins at the spot of the turnover. Points are scored when a team passes into a designated end zone area, and the player receiving the pass eats the remaining donut. If no donut remains to be passed into the end zone, the team with possession must choose a new donut and begin play again by passing to the other team. Play continue until the donuts run out, or until 10:30am.
