Shuffleboard like you've never played before.
Launch the catapults with your shuffleboard stone and catch the bacon with your mouth!
Interactive, fun, and a blast to play!

Bacon-Catching Shuffleboard
Did you know that the Gaper, which used to adorn the facade of a drugstore, wasn’t yawning but was actually snatching… a piece of bacon?
Now you can experience that too! He travels all over the country with his mobile shuffleboard.
And you don’t just get a piece of bacon like that—you have to catch it!
Because the shuffleboard discs don’t land in four squares but at four catapults.
When a player shoots the shuffleboard disc at one of these catapults, a piece of candy is launched into the air—and you have to catch it with your mouth!

The perfect combination of old-fashioned Dutch fun, excitement, hilarity, and sweet treats!

Interactive: watch and join in. This Gaper has the crowd in stitches and knows how to tempt everyone with sweets to play a round of shuffleboard.
Playful: the candy pieces are flying all over the place!
Fun and community-building: young and old laugh together and challenge one another.
Flexible: a fixed location or traveling.
Versatile: from dance, street theater, and music festivals, city festivals, and trade shows to smaller events like a company party, conference, or opening.

Performance duration to be agreed upon; example: 3 x 50 minutes spread over 4 hours.
We always bring plenty of candy, including halal, gluten-free, and vegan options.
