The Roommate Game

How well do you know your roommate? Come find out at the Roommate Game! Whether you have been roommates for just a couple of weeks or lifelong, all types of roommates are welcome. Get to know your roommate better, have fun, and get a chance to win some prizes!

The roommate game is aimed towards all types of roommates: parents/children, caregivers, dorm roommates, lifelong roommates. This event will comprise of two different games. The first game is modeled after the newlywed game in that it takes 3 groups of 2 roommates and asks one person of each pair a question which they answer in another room. The other part of the pair then has to try to guess how the other person would answer the question. Each pair gains points based on corresponding answers. The second game is the shoe game where 3 groups of 2 roommates sit back-to-back on stage and hold one shoe of each roommate in each hand. Then they are asked to raise the shoe of whatever roommate they think best matches the question (ex. who is the cleaner roommate). Prizes will be given out to each group.
