Pass the Pig?

I liked the game Pass The Pig. I thought It was really fun and a neat way to waste time. It uses real space and has group interactivity. It made me feel cheerful, excited, and a bit nervous. I didn't know what would happen in this game, and often I didn't care. I had an unresearchedtheory about how Pass The Pig was invented was as a satire like Monopoly. It showed that everybody, even farm children, could get into gambling, if it was with something as seemingly innocent as Pass The Pig. The ironic thing is you don't know you're gambling, and when you realize it you don't care. This may also be a way for nongamblers, who don't want to be addicted to gambling, to experience the thrill of gambling safely.

In a way it was a really weird game that you toss these pigs around without a thought of how this pig would react if you really did it to them. It's like cow tipping, or like you are a giant tossing these pigs about mercilessly. This game wouldn't be as fun if you were playing with real animals.

What if you were winning or losing slabs of bacon (maybe a little unsettling). It would be ironic if it was a pig playing Pass The Human (even more unsettling). Or even, could you imagine gamblers in Las Vegas playing Pass The Pig.
