Thar's a Bear the object is to set up a bear warning system.
One at a time set up five to eight fellows standing shoulder to
shoulder. The warning system is set up by having each of them
repeating the following message:
Leader: "Thar's a Bar." (correct pronunciation is important)
Bear Warner: "Whar?" (be certain that he pronounces it correct,
if not correct him.) Leader: "Over Thar."
(pointing with his right hand and arm extended) A to B: "Thar's
a Bar." (at which point he will probably point, so
correct him.) B: "Whar?" A: "Over Thar." (now he should point
with the arm extended for the rest of the skit.)
B - C: "Thar's a Bar." ... and so on until the last one says it
to the leader.
Go through the same procedure with the left hand. The third time
have both hands extended, right leg extended, bent down. Last
time the leader goes through the ritual, he pushes the guy next
to him so that the rest will fall like dominoes.
Three Against 1000 Three guys all bandaged up and smeared with
dirt and blood come dragging into the meeting with the
disbelieving tail the fantastic battle that they had just gone
through. "what a battle, what fantastic odds, we never should
have attempted it in the first place, 3 against a 1000,
unbelievable; hamming it up. Finally, one guy says, "Yeah they
were the toughest three guys I've ever seen.
Ticket Line Fans are standing in line waiting to buy tickets
for the big game, movie, or concert. Four fans are standing in
line, saying how much they want to attend the event and
wondering when the ticket window is going to open to sell
tickets. A person walks up to the front of the line. The fans
get upset telling him to not butt in line and to go to the end
of the line and began to shove him back. This person tries once
more to reach the front of the line and then gives up and says
something to the effect; "I'm giving up, they can get someone
else to open this ticket window.
Toothache A boy with a toothache complains to another boy. The
other boy says he will help and pulls out tooth with a pair of
pliers. The boy with the toothache says wrong tooth. Another
person comes along and gives him some apples saying that will
cure his toothache. Boy ends up with a stomachache. Another
person says to tie a string to his tooth and tie the other end
to a door. The door slams in the face of the boy with the
toothache. He now has a toothache, headache, and a stomachache.
Another person enters with some hedge clippers or a axe or
something. He says, "I hear you have a toothache". The boy with
the toothache says, "Not that !" and runs off the stage.
Toothpaste Skit In this you need two cups of water and four or
more people. The people in the skit all line up in a row in
front of the audience. The first person in line has water in his
cup and the last person in line has an empty cup with some water
hidden in his mouth.
The skit starts off with the narrator saying something about
this is a demonstration of how a person can brush his teeth when
there is a shortage of water. The first person takes a drink of
water from his cup and proceeds to brush his teeth with his
finger. After a few seconds he stops and places his head against
the ear of the next person in line and that person's cheeks
begin to bulge out as the first persons deflate. This person
(the second person brushes his teeth with his finger for a few
seconds and then puts his mouth against the next person's ear
with the same results and son on down the line until the last
person in line in reached. This person upon finishing brushing
his teeth releases the water he has in his mouth into the cup in
his hand.
Tracks Two boys enter as if following a trail. They begin to
argue over what kind of tracks they are: "I say they are raccoon
tracks" "No they're wolf tracks" "No they're badger tracks
...". The argument continues until they are suddenly run over
by a train. (Several boys linked together making chuga choo
sounds, boy in front has a flashlight.

excuses for not giving most of it back. After the child leaves,
the parent says that he must do what he has to do to protect the
child and proceeds to eat some of the candy.
Turkey Contest Four guys dressed up like turkeys waiting for
the Best Turkey Contest with one turkey really strutting his
stuff. Feathers can be made from construction paper and brown
type clothes worn. The one turkey who is strutting his stuff,
really wants to win, he preens, even leaves for a minute coming
back with additional stuffing sticking out. Comments are made
about this turkey by the others. The contest begins and the
strutting turkey wins only to find out that the winner gets to

Twist Mouth Family A mother and a father had several children,
now all the children had their mouths twisted out of shape
except their son John, who they had sent to college and had just
returned. They all got ready for bed and Mother asked Father to
blow out the light. "Yes I will," was his reply. "I wish you
would,"said she. "Well I will," said he. Father blows upward
due to the twist in his mouth. Father asks mother (use the same
sequence of phrases as in the previous sentence), she blows
downward. Mother asks daughter, daughter blows to the right.
Mother asks son (not John) who blows to the left. Finally, John,
the college son is asked. He blows straight and blows out the
candle. Father then says, "What a blessed thing it is to have a
son with an education."
