What's the latest you've ever stayed up playing capture the flag?

[Colin Ex]

I went to a neighboring college last night to see some friends and we joined a group of kids running around playing capture the flag at about 12.30. Did that for about an hour, and I got a phone number out of it. :-)

What's the earliest (or latest) you've been up playing some cross-country field game, either capture the flag or something else?

1. Never did....

I never had enough friends to do anything of the kind.....

2. Still not too late, man.

Get a bunch of dudes together and run around in a field shouting at each other.

It sounds pretty homoerotic, but it's almost always a blast. Or make it cross-country in a park or city if you want to make it interesting.

3. Does participating in the Great Southeast Asia War Games

count?
Of course that would skew your demographic a little older.

4. As long as it's a bunch of people running in a field

it's fair game.

How late / early?

5. Laser Tag!

We used to play that on a golf course at night. Loads of fun.

7. That is pretty awesome.

Did you have those handheld standalone things or did you do vests and such too?

9. This was back in the 80s when it first came out.

We had the strappy things that held the sensor on our chests. Wicked fun, and when you're 17 you can run around all night and not get tired. Whoopee!

6. My son did an all nighter on an island in a lake.

They had it planned like some kind of D-Day invasion, complete with boats. You can always guess the latest George of the Jungle...huge forehead knots. :)

8. THAT is awesome.

THat's really something, man. Props to them; sounds like it'd be superfun.

11. Yep, son thinks of it as the best game yet.

This happened at scout camp, where he taught sailing this summer. :)
