    Default Johnny Trigg Yankee Swap Gift

    We did an office Yankee Swap where our boss brought in the gifts and let us play with them. I drew the last number, and I was of course disappointed, because the last number usually doesn't get to unwrap a gift!

    When a coworker unwrapped this Johnny Trigg barbecue sauce set, I GRABBED it! My husband and I love to watch Barbecue Pitmasters on Netflix, and my favorite pitmaster is, you guessed it, Johnny Trigg. Only one other person at the office even knew who he was! Can't wait to try this sauce and rub!

    Haha! Yankee Swap is a gift game where you draw numbers. Number one unwraps a gift, then number two has the option to steal that gift or unwrap another. If number two steal number one's gift, number one gets to unwrap another gift. Number three then can steal number one or number two's gift. And so it goes down the line. It is also called Dirty Santa or White Elephant.

    Clear as mud?

    I think this s a fun idea. Never heard of it in all of my 62 years. I must be stuck in the mud! That's another thing I never heard and really like. "Clear as mud"! Very funny.

    Glad you got something you like.
    peace

    We call it "Dirty Santa" and play it every year at our Family Christmas Party. I always enjoy shopping for my Dirty Santa gift. The women bring "woman gifts" the men a mans gift and the children something they usually don't want to part with. LOL
