Why AFH?
Well, according to founder Rustin Tholen, acronyms are a daily part of everyone's lives. "If you're anything like me, when you don't know an acronym, you try to guess what the letters stand for," says Tholen. "I rarely get it right, so over time I just started putting the most random words together and would get a chuckle out of it." The backstory of the idea that sparked Acronyms for Hilarity started during a game night when other games became redundant. Tholen and his friends decided to get creative and make up a game of their own. "The first time it was played we used torn up pieces of paper with letters on them to create the acronym," says Tholen. "We did not think to use categories, which led to some very unique and memorable responses." Tholen refined the concept over subsequent gatherings, where he and friends tried different formats before eventually deciding on the current version you can purchase on the website. "The custom dice were made after researching the most common first letter of words," Tholen says. "Topic cards were broken down into subcategories to give each round’s judge the ability to be part of the fun."What comes in every order of Acronyms for Hilarity
