Greased Watermelon Game

For all pool owners --- do NOT let this this game be played in your pool,unless you wanting a cleaning nightmare!!! Shortening, grease or whatever will not come out of the pool without extreme effort. As such, this is an ill conceived game where no one thinks of the consequences afterward. You know there's a reason why oil spills are so hard to clean up in the oceans and this isn't much different on a smaller scale.

It did not say this had to be played in a pool, so I would not call this game ill-conceived.  Was there anecdotal evidence to support this "nightmare?" As grease is not soluble in water, I would imagine most would stay attached to the melon or to the boys.  Unless you do this frequently, I don't see negligible amounts of grease harming the pool or the filter.  In fact, I'd bet far more grease comes off those boys naturally.

Thanks for the insightful rules to this incredible game. Going to play it with the kiddos this summer.
