The Squad Letter Line

Five friends, five cards, one question spelled out live.

It took my whole SQUAD to spell it out. HOCO?

Get four or five friends to each hold one big letter card, and line them up in the wrong order first so it spells nonsense. On your count they shuffle into place so the cards read H-O-C-O and a question mark, and you step out from behind the line holding a small sign. It reads like a puzzle solving itself right in front of the person.

Step-by-Step Plan

  1. 1. Cut five poster boards into 18-inch squares and paint one giant letter on each: H, O, C, O, and a question mark.
  2. 2. Line your friends up out of order and have them scramble into the right order on your signal.
  3. 3. Hide behind the line until the letters land, then step out with your sign.
  4. 4. Have one friend film it from the front so the reveal reads on camera.
  5. 5. Hand the person the question-mark card to hold for the photo.
