THERE was more concentrated zanyness on the streets of Hong Kong on Sunday than has probably ever been seen in this city before.
More than 300 people entered the gnoK gnoH Scavenger Hunt. The challenge, as we mentioned on Saturday, was to perform 50 tasks in a nine-hour period.
Here are three tasks from the list: 1. Be photographed in Hong Kong Park with a bride and groom.
Newlyweds were surprised and delighted at the herds of gweilo who descended on the park and suddenly took an enormous interest in them.
2. Collect the punchline of a joke, due to be told by a bartender at a branch of Dan Ryan's at 2.30 pm.
Several people tried to cheat by phoning both branches of the restaurant at 2.29 pm and begging staff to hold the handset up to the bar. Bar staff, sticking to the rules, refused.
