- May 15, 2011
In Minute to Win It season 2 episode 27, titled "The Family That Plays Together," families take on a series of fun and challenging games in an attempt to win prizes and cash. Host Guy Fieri welcomes three families to compete against each other in a series of 60-second challenges using household items such as candy, pencils, and balloons.
The first challenge, called "Suck It Up," requires each family member to use a straw to transfer as many M&Ms from a plate to a cup as possible in 60 seconds. The second challenge, "Office Tennis," tasks teams with popping as many balloons as possible using only folders within the time limit.
Next up is "Magic Carpet Ride," where contestants must raise a blue tarp by pulling on its corners to reveal hidden objects underneath. Some of these objects include ping pong balls and cups, which the families must then use to play the game "Ponginator." In this challenge, each player must bounce ping pong balls into cups.
In "Noodling Around," competitors use uncooked spaghetti to transport as many penne pasta pieces as possible to another plate. The next game, "Breakfast Scramble," involves using a wooden spoon to move cereal from one end of a table to a bowl on the other side.
The final challenge, "Spare Me," is a little different from the previous games. In this game, each family member has to roll a bowling ball towards a set of pins. The twist? The family members stand behind each other, and each person has only 15 seconds to roll their ball.
As the seconds tick down, tensions rise as families do their best to complete each challenge. The energy in the studio is electric as each family tries to surpass the other. It's clear that the families competing have a great time throughout each challenge, providing plenty of laughs and memorable moments.
