Playing tag at my father's funeral
Patrick Schultheis and nine school friends have been playing a cross-country game of "it" since 1990.
Each February their lives are filled with subterfuge, disguises and betrayal as they try to avoid being "it" at the end of the month.
They go to extreme lengths to win; Patrick was tagged at his own father's funeral and says his dad "would have loved that".
Now the story of their epic game has been made into a film starring Jeremy Renner, Jon Hamm and Ed Helms.
