This year to celebrate the month of love Sunridge Gardens hosted their own version of television’s “The Newlywed Game” aptly named “The Not So Newlywed Game”. We had three couples volunteer to be contestants and oh what fun we had.
Douglas from our recreation team who is also a working actor, (when he gets the gigs) was hilarious as the host and we had a large audience to cheer our contestants on. Our contestants were 3 couples who have been married between 1 and 59 years.
Examples of some of the questions asked to the men during the game are “What is the color of your wife’s toothbrush” or “If the prize for winning this game were a second honeymoon to any destination, where would your wife like to go?” The women were asked questions like “If your husband came back as a dog in his next life, what breed would he be?” or “How much cash does your husband have on him right now?”
Our contestants scored fairly well but when asked later about the outcome one contestant admitted that even after 59 years of marriage you cant be 100% sure of what your spouse will answer. There were a few times when our contestants didn’t answer the questions correctly and watching the bewildered looks that their partners gave them was hilarious for everyone in the audience! Thank you to all our contestants for volunteering and being such good sports.
