This document describes a game called "Fat Cat" that can be played using common household items. The game involves placing a glass upside down on a $5 bill, with $1 coins stacked on the bottom of the glass. Players take turns trying to remove the $5 bill from under the glass without disturbing the coins. Coins are added after each turn until only one player remains. The game is presented as an example of how everyday objects can inspire new ways to have fun.
2. When we think about games we automatically are drawn to
those we know, someone else’s ideas that we have grown up

5. Step 1 – Get a glass water glass,
$5 note and 10 x $1 coins
Step 2 – place the glass upside down on top of the
$5 note
6. Step 3 – place one $1 coin on top of the bottom of
the glass
7. Step 4 – contestants are then required to try and pull the $5
note from under the glass. Without touching the glass or
causing the $1 COINS TO FALL!
8. Once everyone on the table has
attempted to remove the $5 note
without disturbing the $2 coin, add a
new $2 coin (on top of the original one)
and keep going around the circle.
The process continues until all but one
champion remains.
