Let's Play Fumble!

Not only does LIFE have plenty to say about how one should remove their stockings, but they also have a few party tricks up their sleeve.

Take for instance this game of "fumble."

How to play: One person designated "it" leaves the room, the other guests swap clothes to disguise themselves. The lights are turned off. Then "it," eyes closed, gropes her way through the party guests to decipher who's actually who.

LIFE Magazine, Carl Iwasaki, 1952.

How about that- the uncensored twister-or a more amusing twist on it, I think I played this once. So fun-Your are indecorously adding a great touch to the holiday atmospherics. G

the game is called "fumble"? should be more like "fondle"...

Little Augury- Just trying to provide everyone with some, you know, festive inspiration for holiday parties!

Style Redux- Haha!

Soodie- That's probably a more accurate, if less lively, description of the "game."

I need to send this article to my local news station, which seems to think that "teenage sex-parties" are a new trend! =)

Tara- Haha! Well, you can assure them that these parties are, in fact, nothing new. Same game, different name, I guess?
