The London Underground

8 Conversations

Functions as a hugely complicated multi-racial, multi-everything social bonding exercise, the rules of which vary depending on the time of day, but generally involve squeezing as many people of all races and ages, in various states of alcoholic stupor into quite small cylinders which are then air-propelled at high speeds through a maze of tunnels. Those still standing at the end of the ride may play on, everyone else must leave the cylinder and exit the game zone.


Each cylinder is colour-coded to indicate difficulty. The easiest is the slow-paced yellow line (called The Circle), up to the most complicated black line (known as The Northern).
