My parents are throwing me a graduation party in May. They asked me to come up with some game ideas. The party is EM themed. So, here's what I was thinking:

1. X-ray challenge: name the swallowed or rectal foreign body? Most correct = prize.
2. Stitching competition: the party is going to be mostly sober adults with a few kids. For the adults, I was thinking I could teach people how to throw a stitch into a pig's foot. Whoever has the best one, wins. A safer alternative may be a splinting competition.
3. Mask decorating competition (for the kids): decorate a surgical mask, and give the kids prizes for participating.

Are these ideas stupid? Any other suggestions? Thanks!

I should mention that most people attending are either family or my friends from home (about 80% are EMTs or firefighters). Their kids will also be there.

Blindfolded rectal exams. After spinning them around see if they can find the correct hole.

Where I come from, once you've graduated, everyone wants to not think about medicine until they absolutely have to on July 1. Keep it simple, have a good time.
 
Step 1: shoot some pigs.
Step 2: try to keep them alive.
Step 3: if successful, shoot them some more.
Step 4: cook and eat pigs.
 
I would say, practice CPR on each other then if you're that bored. Make sure to make it full contact and not the sissy ****.

Even mouth to mouth is fair game.

MOUTH TO MOUTH.
 
Play "Seeker" - using werewolf rules - Seekers versus ER Docs. The Seer has access to the Online Prescription Database. And so on.
