South Dakota teachers scramble for dollar bills to buy classroom supplies in half-time game

Guardian News published this video item, entitled “South Dakota teachers scramble for dollar bills to buy classroom supplies in half-time game” – below is their description.

A competition pitting 10 teachers against each other to scramble for dollar bills to fund school supplies in a city in South Dakota has been described as “demeaning” and drawn comparisons with the Netflix hit series Squid Game.

The local newspaper the Argus Leader reported $5,000 (£3,770) in single dollar bills were laid out on the ice skating ring during the Sioux Falls Stampede hockey game on Saturday night, and the teachers from nearby schools competed to grab as many as possible in less than five minutes.
