EAST LANSING, Mich. – With the Fantasy Football season now over, the months that follow are when the last-place finishers have to pay up. Punishments can range from wearing an embarrassing costume in a library to spending 24 hours in an IHOP while consuming pancakes to shorten the time. Whatever the task might be, there are very creative ideas for making sure one doesn’t try to finish last.
Some feel that punishments are necessary to perform, while others strongly disagree. Though there are plenty of tasks that require people to put their reputations on the line. Do some go too far, or are some not far enough?
Fantasy football was designed to be a fun way for people to enjoy watching NFL football. According to ESPN Fantasy Football, a new all-time record of 11 million fans played this past season. As the number of participants grows, so does the creativity of the punishment that the loser must perform.
