It is a game which involves a group of people, preferably the more agile, to go to a children's playground (the more complex the better) and to have a contest as to see who is "it" and the others are to hide around upon the playground works while the person who is "it" tries to find these others while the "it" person has closed eyes or is blind-folded. The others can move to other areas of the playground but must take great care when moving or especially on the ground. If the person who is "it" calls out "GROUNDERS" while someone is traversing the ground to another area that person becomes "it". Another way to pass the "it" status is to tag someone.
The game usually becomes more fun if the participants are intoxicated on alcohol or marijuana or other things. It is also fun if a member is overweight or typically scared of jumping around or having one's eyes closed on complex surfaces!
Grounders is a game that I only know of existing in Vancouver, British Columbia but may exist elsewhere.

Get the grounders mug.Grounders is a playground tag game also known to exist in Calgary, Alberta.
Minor injuries are quite common as a result of navigating the complex surfaces blind. These injuries may result in great humour to the other participants. Often, if one or more people have not yet been "it" or have tried to cheat, the others will gang up on them to put them in a position where they will more likely get caught.
Variations of Grounders include allowing the person who's "it" to have their eyes open while on the ground but closed on the playground area. While on the ground, they can then reach in to try to tag people.

Get the grounders mug.Grounders (or Outsiders, as they are known by the Mountain Men) is any of the groups of people who were born on Earth rather than in space or in Mount Weather. The Grounders are descendants of humans who survived the nuclear apocalypse 97 years ago, due to their enhanced tolerance to nuclear radiation.

Get the Grounders mug.Grounders is a game that to my knowledge exists in Vancouver, Alberta, Calgary, British Columbia, and Newfoundland, in which a group of people will climb around on playground equipment and try to avoid being tagged by the blindfolded person whom was designated as "it". the rules of the game are as follows: One person will be chosen to be "it" If they have never played the game before or they showed up late or something they are automatically chosen to be "it". Sometimes the person that is chosen will be instructed to close their eyes and spin in place for 10 seconds so that they can be disorientated while also giving the players a chance to move around a little bit. during the game if "it" hears someone trying to sneak around on the ground they can yell "GROUNDERS" and the round ends and the person that got caught is now "it". Its true origin alludes me.

Get the Hurlingham Grounds mug.A game played mainly at a play structure. First the game begins with the person "it" counting to ten. The person "it" has his/her eyes closed while trying to tag the other players. If tagged you are "it". The person "it" can say "groundbees" as many times as they want, if the person it says "groundbees" and you are on the ground you are "it". The person "it" is allowed to go on the play structure and on the ground. The players are allowed to go on both too, but it would be dangerous to go on the ground because the person "it" would say "groundbees" and you would be "it". This game is a game of skill and ninja-ness.
While playing Groundbees I got hurt jumping from the slide to the platform. But, i'm still going to go back and play today because it's so fun.
