Donut on a String

Donut on a String is a timeless party game that combines physical comedy with a tasty reward. Often seen at harvest festivals, Halloween parties, and summer BBQs, its appeal lies in its utter simplicity and the inevitable mess it creates. Watching friends and family struggle to take a bite out of a swinging donut without using their hands is guaranteed to generate loud laughter and great photos. It’s a game of patience and technique—if you lunge too hard, the donut swings away; if you’re too slow, your competitors will finish first. Beyond the fun, it’s an incredibly budget-friendly way to entertain a group while also serving as a snack!
