This document connects and combines the subjects of sports and quantum physics by introducing a game called "Schrodinger's Waffles." The game involves placing a penny inside a waffle box and shaking it. If the penny lands on tails when the box is opened, the quantum cat is considered alive and the game continues. Players can stop at any point or keep playing until the penny lands on heads, at which point the cat is considered dead and the game ends. Players receive as their final score the number of consecutive tails obtained before stopping or killing the cat. A score of 9 tails qualifies the player for the Schrodinger's Waffle Box Hall of Fame.

2. SPORTS AND SCHRODINGER
In this project I connect and combine a Waffle Box
and a penny
I also connect and combine the subjects of sports
and quantum physics

3. SPORTS
Sports are defined as a physical activity, but not all
physical activities are defined as sport. For
example, brushing your teeth is not considered a sport
The basis of sport is the possibility of two different
outcomes – ie, a ball kicked towards the goal may go in
or it may be blocked

4. SCHRODINGER
Erwin Schrodinger used the story of a cat in a box to
illustrate a principle of quantum physics
The cat may either be alive or dead. Until the box is
opened, both possibilities exist. Once the box is
opened, then one possibility becomes actual.

5. CONNECT AND COMBINE
To play Schrodinger’s waffles, a penny is placed in a
waffle box and the box is shaken
When the box is opened, if the penny is tails then
Schrodinger’s cat is alive and the game continues

6. SPORT AND STRATEGY
Players may stop at any time or continue until the
penny comes up heads
If the penny comes up heads, then Schrodinger’s
quantum cat is dead and the game is over

7. FINAL SCORE
Players who choose to stop before killing Schrodinger’s cat
receive the number of consecutive tails as a final score
Any player who achieves a score of 9 tails (9 lives) is eligible to
end the Schrodinger’s waffle box hall of fame
