Once that is decided upon, the winning team will get one point for each of their balls that are closer to the Pallino than the opposing team’s closest ball. The winning team will always get at least one point but could get up to 4. Too close to tell visually? The game pouch has a drawstring that can be used as a “measuring tape”. Compare the two balls in question by stretching the string from the Pallino to each ball to see which is closest. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBonus Kiss: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGet a bonus point if your ball is touching the Pallino at the end of the round.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSimple rules: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe next round the other team throws the Pallino and goes first.
