How Do You Play Twinkling Lights National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation?

By Robert Palmer

If you’re a fan of the classic Christmas movie National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, then you’ve probably heard of the game Twinkling Lights. This game is often played during the scene where Clark Griswold (played by Chevy Chase) is trying to get his house’s Christmas lights to work. If you’re not familiar with the game, don’t worry – we’ll explain how to play it in this article.

What You’ll Need

To play Twinkling Lights, you’ll need a string of Christmas lights and a group of people who are willing to play. The more people you have, the better the game will be.

How to Play

To start playing Twinkling Lights, one person should be designated as the “leader.” The leader will plug in the string of Christmas lights and then randomly choose one person in the group to start.

The chosen person must then try to untangle the string of lights without turning any of them off. If they turn off one or more lights, they are out of the game.

Once the first person has had a turn, they choose someone else in the group to go next. This continues until only one person is left standing – that person is declared the winner!

Tips for Playing

If you’re playing with a large group of people, it can be helpful to have multiple strings of Christmas lights so that everyone gets a chance to play. You can also set a time limit for each turn if you want to make sure that everyone gets a fair chance.

Another way to make Twinkling Lights more challenging is to add additional rules. For example, you could require players to use only one hand or forbid them from using their teeth.

Conclusion

Playing Twinkling Lights can be a fun way to bring some holiday cheer into your home. Whether you’re playing with a small group of friends or a large family gathering, this game is sure to bring some laughs and good times. So plug in your Christmas lights and get ready to untangle – may the best player win!
