Title: Starting Chat at the Table Ideas Thread Post by: Tal on January 02, 2016, 07:24:20 PM A place for your ideas of how to get a table of people at a live table off their ipads and mp3 players and engaging with the people around them.
Today, I opened a conversation by asking how someone trains to become a lion tamer: do you work with progressively larger cats or progressively smaller chairs? I have previously gone round the table and asked everyone to guess what the most miserable or largest headphone-clad person is listening to. Then everyone stares at that person to find out. Lots of people use 'phones at the table - we are here for hours after all - but it's boring if people don't engage. Any other suggestions? Here's the place to put them. This could become a useful resource in times of need. Title: Re: Starting Chat at the Table Ideas Thread Post by: Marky147 on January 02, 2016, 07:40:00 PM Shots for the table

Nothing better than leading the old boys astray, when it's not even teatime ;D Title: Re: Starting Chat at the Table Ideas Thread Post by: DropTheHammer on January 02, 2016, 11:25:03 PM I usually play live on Saturdays so open with asking if anyone has any footy bets on today. Always gets some table chat going :)
