This is a drinking / skill testing game I made 2 years ago at Totse2, I never made a write up on how it worked so ill do that now.
here it is.
The maze you follow with the electric wand is 1/4 copper tube about 5-6 feet in length, I bent it into shape around a door handle and no kinks in the tube formed so that was great.

switch 1 on the right is easy mode as the light has to build up a charge before it flashes and switch 2 is the car horn (Honda horn), its hard mode cause it activates immediately.

here is the inside.
the round thing at the top of the box is the turn signal flasher from a car and needs to charge briefly to flash the flights.....this creates easy mode.
the whole circuit is a ground return system so both modes can be turned on and still work or either one turned on individualy.

We made something like this in elementary school, except the copper path was set into a piece of thick, flat cardboard so it was like a 'path' through a landscape, then we made a small town around it with cardboard boxes and toy cars and shit. Then one would have to use the wand to follow the 'road' and if you left the 'roadway' it would make a loud, annoying buzzing noise.

i would sell the copper for beer money

Quick video I made of how it operates.

You forgot to add that you did all of this drunk as a skunk.
Life ain't no game, son.

It was normal, at least how I grew up, for kids to drink beer sometimes. I saw friends dads let them drink beer, and my stepdad and mom would let me drink miller 'pony bottles'. I remember one time I drank like three of them while watching godzilla and I fell in the toilet and my mom was laughing and pointing.
