A real-life spin on The Game of Life, designed to unfold in phases throughout the celebration.
💡Participation is 100% optional — join in as much (or as little) as you'd like!
For those who’d like to play, your team is about to embark on a delightfully unpredictable adventure through the twists and turns of life in the Thunderdome.
🏆 Earn A+J Bucks by completing challenges and just plain having fun.
💸 Cash out your Bucks later in the evening for prizes at Retirement Village — first come, first served!
You will form a team (4–6 players per team). Choose your team name and track your progress progress as you navigate the Thunderdome. Guests of all ages are encouraged to participate!
Your team will go through three phases: The Early Years, the Mid-Life Hustle, and the Golden Years.
Teams can choose from the list of challenges available during the different phases. Anything you need to complete the challenge can be found in the Thunderdome Essentials.
For each completed challenge, find The Banker (wearing a green visor and a backpack full of dough!) to collect your hard-earned A+J Bucks.
The A+J Bucks can be redeemed towards the end of the evening for prizes from Retirement Village.
Continue your journey with a new round of more advanced challenges!
Your team’s official progress log for surviving the Thunderdome! Use the tracker to log completed challenges, record your A+J Bucks, and update your score throughout the night. Submit once, then use your email link to edit and keep things current as you hustle through each phase of life.
Using the random word generator link below, get your "First Word" and give your team clues to get them to guess it.
If you want to make it more challenging, use your phone timer and race against the clock!
Find another team and work together to discover 3 things everyone has in common.
Test your knowledge of useless International road rules trivia by completing the International Driving Laws quiz.
Players take a spin on the “Wheel of Jobs” to land their first job! Teammates will then ask yes-or-no questions to figure out the job title — guessing continues until someone gets it right!
It's time to buy your first home! Use the quiz link to access the list of descriptions for homes for sale - some real listings, some totally made up! Select "Zillow" or "Nah" to test your real estate prowess.
Spin the Thunderdome Wheel of Chance and follow the instructions (earn $$, get a bonus prize, incur an unexpected expense, etc.)
Teams must dance their faces off for 3 songs in a row.
Complete at least 3 items from the Bucket List.
Create a 10-second “life advice” video as a team and send it to Allie & Jessica!
