En Route to Least Dangerous Game


Click to Play

This is me heading down. Cedar Ave S in Minneapolis on my way to Matt’s Bar to lock in my 2nd win in Least Dangerous Game . It’s a little windy, and the Treo 700p video quality is marginal at best. I was in a hurry because I was supposed to be meeting up with Carly, Katie, & Kyle for a ride.

Least Dangerous Game on FOX 9 News

I had some fun contributing to a story about Least Dangerous Game with Aric for a FOX 9 News segment on Friday night.

Here’s a link to the video.

It was a pleasure to meet FOX reporter, Dawn Stevens. Overall, I think she put together a great summary of what the game is all about, and in incredibly fast time. I stopped by The Local for a couple beers after the shoot near the IDS, then started receiving text messages from friends while I was wrapping up a later dinner at Mission. I’m sticking to my theory that TV personalities look better in person than they do in their bio-page photos.

There was no need to rush home to watch it, since we don’t have a TV, but thanks to the good old Internet, I was able to catch it tonight.

It looks like one of Hannah’s tweets made it into the screen shot of my Treo on the FOX 9 site. The other two are from Aric, who’s saying, “I am am pretending to send out clues while they tape me. Neat.” and Ang, with, “Settled for tomato soup and Triscuits. Jealous?”

I could go for a Triscuit right about now.

I’m pretty darn sure this is the first time I’ve seen the word, “masturbatory,” on a newscast. It shows up when they pan over the About page of the LDG site.

Least Dangerous Game Starts Saturday

I’m jumping on the Least Dangerous Game scene. Looks like Aaron and Erica beat me to it. I’m such a laggard.

I can’t say that I really know what this is about, but it sounds like it’s a medallion-hunt kinda thing except you’re looking for a person who’s popping out hints using Twitter.

Backing up, Twitter is a group text messaging service where you SMS a quick message into the number 40404, which is then broadcast to your fellow Twitter friends. For those familiar with Dodgeball, it’s basically the shout-out feature. You can also send message out to your friends using the Twitter site, AIM and other IM services, or via a bunch of other widgets people are creating for the service.

If you want to try Twitter out, go to Twitter.com or just send an SMS message to 40404 with the message JOIN. After you’re signed up, add me as a friend to get started.

If the Least Dangerous Game sounds like fun, add the game as a friend here. They’re shooting for 50 participants and have 20 signed up so far.
