I remember doing this in 7th grade.

We were given specific rules on the weight of what we could use to stop the egg or protect it.

No rules were given about methods for catching it.

We put a big laundry basket under there with some really soft pillows and didn't even **** with the egg. We had outsmarted everyone.

My buddy dropped the egg and I think he was so sure we'd win he didn't really pay attention and the thing bounced off the side of the plastic laundry basket and smashed on the pavement.

We lose.
