No snow? No problem.
There are two great things about throwing snowballs. It’s fun and it’s free. If you want to make a good day great, go to the park and start throwing snowballs with your friends. The result: instant happiness. Even if you lose, it’s hard not to have a good time.
On the flip side, there’s one problem with snowball throwing. It requires snow. This is particularly a problem for people in places like Jamaica.
Fear not all you snow-deprived citizens, I’ve uncovered an online gem that’s going to make your day a little better. Coca-Cola has created a snowball throwing game at OpentheGames.com. Genius.
If you haven’t gotten enough snow this winter to make quality snowballs or you’ve been kicking it at the beach, now you can invite your friends to join you for an online snowball fight. Are your friends busy hitting the slopes? Log on and compete with people from all over the world.
If you are one of the lucky ones who have a backyard full of the snow, think of this as a competition simulator. Use this site to analyze the trajectory of your throws and play out your strategies prior to competition. Smart strategies equal more wins.

Step 3: DOMINATE!
Check it out and see if you can top my score of four gazillion and three points. I had Coca-Cola remove it from the leader board so it didn’t intimidate everyone. It just didn’t seem fair.
Oh and one other thing, if Jamaica can get a bobsled team together I’m confident they’ll come ready to rock at the first snowball throwing competition in the Olympics. You better be practicing, too.
