It's a Game
Get ready for an unforgettable experience at the Saunders College of Business - it's the World's Largest Game of Kerplunk! Bring your family and step into a world of wonder as you witness this towering structure reaching an astounding 4 stories into the sky. Can you delicately extract sticks without letting the vibrant beach balls perched atop come crashing down?
It's the Stock Market!
But wait, there's more! In this colossal game of Kerplunk, we've added a sprinkle of stock market magic. Some of the beach balls represent major indices like the Dow Jones or the S&P 500, each reflecting the market's overall health. And the sticks? They symbolize various sectors such as technology, healthcare, finance, or consumer goods, along with individual stocks holding everything together.
As you gingerly remove the sticks, think of it as an investor navigating the stock market. Every move carries the risk of disrupting the delicate balance, just like buying or selling stocks impacts market stability.
It's Legendary
Imagine that the man who created KerPlunk, Eddy Goldfarb, is also the inventor of nearly 800 toys including Yakity Yak Teeth, Stompers, and the Bubble Gun. At 102, Eddy lives in a retirement community where he converted his garage into a machine shop, creates translucent lithophane portraits on his 3D printer, and writes 100 word short stories.
It's IMAGINE RIT
Join us for a day of excitement and discovery at RIT Saunders College of Business, where both Kerplunk and the stock market come alive with fun, learning, and adventure for the whole family!
