Game 2 | Game 2 Outline |
You finally decide to visit the sideshows and see what they've got. It's a little bit of a walk with your sloshing belly dragging you off-course with every step, but you finally reach the sideshows. This should help me take my mind off things, you think.
Minutes later, you wonder why you thought that. The midget painter, the dog-faced boy, the rubber man ... all of them stop and stare when you walk into the tent. Soon, you're feeling like more of a freak than anyone you've ever seen working the grift.
Doggedly, you enter one last tent ... and wish you hadn't. There before you is the show's fat man, billed at a weight of over 700 pounds. And next to your thousands of pounds, he looks positively puny!
You can't back up with the crowd behind you, so you try to quietly make your way to the exit, feeling very foolish as you long to vanish into the background. You're almost there when you notice the barker motioning you over. Are you in trouble? Or is he just looking for a bigger freak than he's got now? What should you do?
