At noon every Wednesday at Groupon HQ, a bone-rattling gong signals the end of the workday, and employees are pitted against each other in no-holds-barred competitions to determine one thing: who can have the most fun! Here’s a look at some of our most recent employee contests:
- Hula-Hoop Hullaballoo
- Poetry Slam-Off
- Full-Size American Gladiators “Eliminator” run-throughs
- “Groupon Idol” singing competition (not to be confused with our demolished, currently subject to litigation “Groupon Idol” mandatory worship icon)
- Batting-cage contest
- Bat-caging contest
- Ulysses Speed-Reading and Comprehension Salary-Determination Quiz
- Pie-eating contest followed by eating-related shame-expressing contest
- Tennis matches against our black-market, slightly misshapen Andre Agassi clone
- Real, live whack-a-mole
