Beat fair games




















Use a very high arc, with as little spin as possible when tossing the coin. You can even try tossing the coin right up into the hanging stuffed animals above. Some people recommend purposely bouncing the coin off one plate in order to make a second bounce land on a plate safely. You are given a fishing pole with a small ring attached to the end of the line.

Your goal is make a soda bottle laying on its side stand using this contraption. The bottles used in this carnival game are often made with leaded glasses making them very heavy. The secret to winning the milk bottle throw is to aim at the base of the bottom two containers rather then at the intersection of all three bottles. The goal is to whack the base of this game with a mallet causing a weight shoot up and ring a bell. The trick is all in accuracy and technique rather than strength.

A few tips:. Hold the mallet over your head, arms completely extended, arch your body backwards. Give a few slow motion test swings to judge how far you should stand away from the target to hit it dead-center. Using this method you will achieve the most momentum and still accurately hit the target. You have a lot going against you in this game.

The ball is over-inflated, the hoop is smaller than regulation size and often an oval shape rather than circular. The backboard is plywood making it extra bouncy. So forget about throwing a normal free-throw shot. You get a link to a 6 min video and a fully illustrated.

I've come up with a method of teaching yourself a skill that will be beneficial to you when you go to state fairs and carnivals. Namely, how to win at the "Stand the beer bottle up with a ring on a string" game every time. I'm assuming that most of you have already been to a large state fair or carnival that has had this game, so most of you should know what game I'm referring to. I'm also assuming most of you have already tried the various other games that you find there and haven't walked away without much more than a cheap, two inch stuffed "thingy".

You're probably thinking, you can never win at those stupid games anyway. Well, I'm going to try and show you how to win at one particular game every time, and explain some of the pitfalls that many of the other games have to "trick" you into thinking they're easier than they seem.

I came up with the idea of practicing at home when I was at a carnival with an ex-girlfriend. She insisted that I win her something, but I said that I didn't know how. She took this as an insult, the fact that I didn't want to blow about ten bucks on a futile attempt at something I'd never do.

As you know, every male is obligated to win a stuffed animal for his girlfriend or date. If you don't accomplish this, you tend to think that she might take this as a sign of a weakness in your virility. In my case, if I didn't at least try, there was gonna be no nookie that night. Of course I then made an honest attempt at standing up the bottle, I thought I "almost" did it, but failed miserably.

I noticed that the guy who worked the game could stand the bottle up every time. I thought, the lucky guy, I bet when he goes to other carnivals he'll win something for his girlfriend for sure. Then I thought, well why not just practice what he does, then I would be set for life! I went home that night and tried to recreate the game for myself.

As you can now guess, I've become rather successful at doing this. I've decided that since I'm not going to make a huge financial profit at winning stuffed animals for the rest of my life, I'll write this book to teach other people what I've learned from years of winning at carnivals instead.

Let me now go over some of the other carnival games you might run into or have already tried. I no longer bother with trying to play these games.

When I know a prize is waiting for me at the bottle game, I just save my money and blow it on the fried dough. The object of this game is to throw a small plastic ring onto rows of coke bottles, trying to get a ring to land around the neck of one of the bottles. Usually you get about a dozen rings to throw for a buck. This carnival game usually has some large prizes.

This carnival game is very difficult, it's basically luck if you get one of the rings to land around the neck of a bottle just right. I've heard that if you spin the rings very quickly, like a Frisbee, the spin will give the ring some stability in landing horizontally onto the neck of a bottle. I haven't tried this, but if you collect a bunch of those rings, you can practice at home on your own bunch of coke bottles. It seems like it would take a lot of time to learn how to do this with any consistency, but it might be worth trying.

I'll have to let you know. This carnival game is pretty rare at carnivals, but it is one of the few carnival games where there is no luck involved, just skill. The object of this carnival game is to cover a circle about 6 inches in diameter which is painted on a board with five gray metal disks that are about four inches in diameter. You've got to completely cover the painted area or else you won't win.

The person in the booth usually shows you how it's done. There is only one way that it can be done and that's the way the person shows you. You'll have to see this carnival game to get a better understanding of what I'm trying to explain. If you watch carefully, the trick is to have the inner edge of the metal disks just cover the center point of the large circle. It's not too hard to learn if you spend some time watching the demonstration, but this is where the scam part comes in.

If you want to pop a balloon and win your boo a prize by playing balloon darts, you need to remember a few things. The balloons are under inflated and the dart tips are dull, so throw the dart as hard as you can.

Additionally, the best prizes are almost always behind the balloons on the edges, since most people tend to aim at the middle. You might be a superstar at dunking in your backyard, but know that the basketball hoops in carnival games are nowhere near regulation size. The hoop is smaller, usually oval-shaped, and the balls are overinflated. To make matters worse, the backboard is rigged to be extra bouncy, so don't even think about using it to sink a shot.

For the milk bottle toss, know that the bottles are weighted down and extra heavy. In order to knock them down, aim between the two bottles at the bottom, not the intersection of all the bottles. The trick to climbing carnival rope ladders, according to Blifaloo.

While applying equal pressure with your right foot and left arm, move your left foot and right arm at the same time. Then do the same thing with the opposite limbs, shimmying yourself up the ladder. You don't have to be built like Vin Diesel to win a big teddy bear during one of those test-your-strength games, the ones where you try to ring a bell by hitting a target with a mallet.

It's all about accuracy , not strength. Hold the mallet as far down the handle as you can, judge how far away you can stand, and hit the target right in the center. This is one of the most difficult carnival games.

According to numerous sources , the way to beat it is to shoot around the star to make a circle so the paper will fall out with the star. N ote that the gun barrels are often bent, and their marks are not accurate.

It's important to gauge just how far off the mark the gun shoots and adjust your aim accordingly within the first few shots. In the water-gun game , a row of people play and each one gets a water pistol. The object is to be the first one to fill his or her balloon with air that's mounted on top of their clown head, which you do by firing a stream of water into its mouth.

The trick to edging out your competition is to line up your shot and squeeze the trigger before the bell even rings. If you're already lined up and focused instead of distracted by all the carny nonsense, you'll be that much more likely to win.

The reason why you can't beat the Swinger game is basic physics, according to Artofmanliness.
