The Original
Où Est le Poulet?
The rules of "Où est le Poulet?", the game Chicken Rush was heavily inspired by, are as follows:
-
1
Everyone puts some money in a pot, usually £10-20.
-
2
Draw names out of a hat to form teams, with the last name donning a giant chicken costume.
-
3
If you decline the honour, there is a forfeit of the group's choice.
-
4
The Chicken gets the pot of money, buys everyone a drink, and goes to secure a pub or bar within the pre-determined boundaries of play. No entry fee or food-only venues allowed!
-
5
All teams must finish their first drink before departing the starting pub in search of the chicken.
-
6
The Chicken drinks through the pot of money and must answer all queries with "What chicken costume?"
-
7
When a team finds the Chicken, they get to join in drinking through the pot of money.
-
8
The Chicken may post clues on a group chat at any time and must do so 30 minutes after the penultimate team has found the Chicken.
-

It's also known as The Chicken Chase, One Giant Chicken, The Fox Hunt, The Duck Hunt and many others... Including Chicken Rush.
