HOW TO PLAY
1

Line up both teams facing each other with the bacon placed at the midpoint between them.

2

Assign each player on both teams a matching number so every player has a counterpart on the opposing line.

3

Call out a number, and the two matching players race to grab the bacon and return to their line without being tagged by the other.

4

If the runner grabs the bacon and returns untagged, their team scores; if the opponent tags them first, the opponent's team scores instead.

5

Continue calling numbers until everyone has gone at least once; the team with more points wins.
