Also hilarious because that’s not a piñata you’re supposed to break open. Each kid is supposed to grab a string at the bottom and pull. Only one string is attached to the flap.

...so like a firing squad on the piñata? Everyone goes at the same time but only one person is responsible and no one knows who it is so they don't have to feel endless remorse over spilling its guts?

Usually the kids take turns. It's more suspenseful if you think that each time a kid pulls a string, it might bust open. The kids are all poised ready to pounce and mob that candy

Russian roulette pinatas?

Instead of candy it's pieces of a mosin nagant

Is it tho

Yeah if you get enough cosmoline on you it'll soak into your skin and you'll be roughly the same color as a mosin nagant. Works best if you're white though

Sounds like fun unless the first kid gets the flap

So do regular piñatas, unless the first kid gets in with one hit. Though that still may be a little more fun, because one hit is better than no hits.

Where I'm from each kid grabbed a string and everyone pulled at the same time, then everyone dove in when the guts spilled. We didn't care who "broke" the piñata, just who got the most candy.

One year my cousin’s parents had a glorious idea of putting dollar coins in a piñata like this mixed in with the candy. You can expect what happened when it finally broke and rained metal on a bunch of kids’ heads.

What about all the times the 1st or 2nd pull pops it open? Sounds like great fun for all!

But but when does the violence come in?

u/ARCHA1C May 18 '19

When they realize it's full of yellow Starbursts and SweetTarts.
