How to Play
Have group form a circle. Each player is given a number to remember, with one person sitting just before number 1, being called, "Big Booty."
Everyone begins the game by clapping hands once, lap once, back-and-forth, in a 1-2-1-2 rythym. Once the rythym is solid around the circle, "Big Booty" begins a chant, still clapping, "Big Booty, Big Booty, Big Booty! Big Booty, number ____" The number that Big Booty calls (ie: #3), must then quickly respond, "Number '3', number_____" or "Number '3', Big Booty." Each player who's number is called, must respond quickly. If the player messes up, or doesn't respond, or if the wrong person responds, everyone raises their arms (wave style: arms forward, and up), and shouts, "Awwwwwwwww, Shucks!" Then the person who made the mistake, moves to the end of the circle, and the players who were behind that person have a new number, one less than before. When Big Booty messes up, he/she moves to the back, and Number 1 becomes the new Big Booty.
Note:
Speaking from the vantage point of someone who has a slow reaction time, this game can be frustrating when you never make it to the front. As a facilitator, you have the opportunity to notice these players, and manipulate the game so that they start at or near the front, or take turns. It's a fun-spirited game, especially when everyone eventually gets a chance. (Also, as with any game, if a player is dicouraged, I guarantee: if you keep trying, you will get better).
