Christmas Games

Funny how getting together at Christmas brings out the urge in people to want to play games. No doublt countless families will have spent part of the holiday playing games like I-Spy and Charades. Well, now, it appears, there is a brand new game from Italy which looks set to take off in a big way, it's called 'Push The Pope Over'. The idea is that players start from the back of the cathedral and have to navigate their way through the pews to the barrier in front of the altar. The winner is the first person to successfully jump the barrier and push the pope over. Sounds fun! To help you you understand the rules further take a look at the following video clip and see how the game is played.
