Big Booty
A rhythm-and-number circle game where the beat must never break. Mistakes rotate the group and renumber everyone, putting you one spot closer to the Big Booty position.
About
Big Booty is a rhythm warm-up that builds group listening and concentration under pressure. Players hold a steady slap-clap beat and pass numbers around the circle with precise timing. The game rewards spatial awareness, steady nerves and the ability to stay connected to a group pulse even when things go wrong.
How to Play
- 1
Players form a circle. The leftmost player is 'Big Booty'; the rest number off consecutively.
- 2
Establish a shared beat together: slap thighs on beat one, clap on beat two. Hold it for 8 counts before starting.
- 3
Big Booty begins the chant: 'Big Booty, Big Booty, Big Booty - oh yeah, Big Booty!' then immediately calls a number on the beat.
- 4
That number responds 'Oh yeah!' and calls another number on the next beat. The rhythm must never stop.
- 5
If a player breaks the beat, hesitates or calls out of turn, they move to the end of the circle. Everyone shifts one place and renumbers. Restart the chant.
Variations
- -Use names instead of numbers for a relationship-building variant at the start of a session with a new group.
