KS Gov's Son: "Don't Drop the Soap"




Shower The son of Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius is selling a board game that's a little less Kansas and a little more "Oz."

John Sebelius, a 23-year-old student at the Rhode Island School of Design, created a prison-themed board game for a class project. The game's called Don't Drop the Soap:

"Fight your way through 6 different exciting locations in hopes of being granted parole," the site says. "Escape prison riots in The Yard, slip glass into a mob boss' lasagna in the Cafeteria, steal painkillers from the nurse's desk in the Infirmary."

The game includes five tokens representing a bag of cocaine, a handgun and three characters: wheelchair-using 'Wheelz," muscle-flexing "Anferny" and business suit-clad "Sal 'the Butcher.'"

Wow.

Gov. Sebelius and her husband say they "are very proud of their son John's creativity and talent."

We say the game can be yours for $34.99.
