Players pass the ball around in a counterclockwise circle one person at a time. The person holding the ball has to choose a number of seconds (1 to 5) before passing it to the next player. The ball is set on a random timer on how many seconds it will take before it goes off. When it goes off on a player that player is disqualified, and the last person remaining is the winner. | |||
