This is similar to the other 'build-a-story' games, but the goal is to get sidetracked as much as possible while holding some relevance to the last post (nothing completely random). For example:

Person 1: There once was a man who lived in a house on a hill.
Person 2: There was a garden next to the house.
Person 3: The vegetables in the garden were frequently stolen by rabbits.
Person 4: The rabbits were shot by the police.
Person 5: The police...

I'll start

There once was a man who went to the store to buy some chocolates.

The project was stopped due to an avalanche which killed the all the bears. The avalanche also wiped out half of the residents of the village. A mass burial/funeral/vigil was held on the following Saturday at the local petting zoo.

The ice cream seller was actually an assassin who was supposed to kill a businessman.

However, after the SWAT team was killed by the ice cream, he was sent to jail and ended up meeting the four teenagers.

The prisoners decided to go to Wal-Mart for groceries, but were gunned down by a hobo in the parking lot after they pulled a prank on him.

The hobo turned out to be a demon in disguise who decided to burn down a school.

The school-burning was a failure because the students had been preparing for a world record water baloon fight and put out the fire quickly.
