^ I think I can guess, so I searched for it, and it seems like a slightly different game according to UrbDic, you wait for them to answer the door, and stand on their porch, looking at them, then run like a mf

We never waited for them to come out, jumped in the nearest bushes or a behind a house corner.
They would have called our parents.

The only version Ive ever heard of was the version in which you...put dog do in a paper bag, put in front of their door , and set it on fire...before you ring the door bell, and run away. So they are forced to stomp the fire out, and get it on their shoe.

I don't wear shoes. Or answer the door. Guess I should get better fire insurance. :skull:

If anyone's interested... :nerdy:

The actual coronation service - step forward to 33:28 for the fanfare, with "I Was Glad" starting at 38:40.
This is free of commentary.

"I Was Glad" is based on Psalm 122 and a traditional coronation anthem sung to indicate the arrival of the monarch - or in this case two of 'em, resulting in a double "vivat". Originally composed for the coronation of King Edward VII in 1902.

You may need a VPN if the video is restricted for UK viewing only.
