This game is similar to Hilarious Handkerchief, but trickier. The Leader instructs everyone in the
circle to start laughing the instant he or she throws the ball into the air. And everyone must keep
laughing until someone catches it. At that moment, they have to be absolutely quiet. The one who
catches it becomes the Leader for the next round. If anyone doesn't laugh when the ball is in the
air, or is caught laughing after the ball is caught, that person must drop out of the circle. To
get people out, the Leader can try making some false starts - not quite throwing the ball after
making all the motions - not quite catching it after seeming to. If the leader is devious enough,
there will soon be a winner!
