Possuming: The act of pretending to be unconscious, holding body, breathing and especially eyes still. Purpose normally is to hear what you normally wouldn't because the speakers think you're asleep.

Also known as "Possum Wampin," "Possum Stompin" or "Possum Beatin"The act of getting a few people around, going out driving on a back country roads at about midnight or so, attempting to find, and kill, these useless rodent creatures called Opossums(possums). These creatures are commonly found wandering on the road licking the salt left on the road after winter and so early spring is the best time of year to carry out this game. Once the group of possomers comes across a possum, everyone jumps out of the vehicle and runs after the animal to surround it and the carry out the execution. They are not fast animals at all, have no natural predators, are mostly diseased, and are always found on the road flattened with their guts hangin out. And so the small game of "Possuming" has been created. Possums are usualy killed by baseball bats, pick handles, guns, chains, vehicles, and things of that sort.

a great drinking game where players have to sit in a tree, like a possum, and consume a pack of 24 beers, preferably speights, until they fall out of the tree from drunkeness.
