That means they need to greet every customer they see by saying, “Welcome to Best Buy, we’re so glad you’re here.” There’s an added bonus here, so it’s not all just suffering needlessly: if the loser gets kicked out of the Best Buy, they automatically get the first pick next season (if it’s a redraft league). While inside, they must be the best employee possible. My favorite punishment for the 2022 season is called, “Best Buy Guy.” Here are the rules: the last place finisher must wear black pants, a blue polo and a nametag in a Best Buy store. Every leaguemate gets to make them drink one of the 12 pack, but they can make them do so at any time during the offseason. Any time a leaguemate texts them, “it’s Lime Time,” the last place finisher will have to record a video where they drink one of those nasty cans of misery. The loser must keep a 12 pack of lukewarm Bud Light Lime. If you’re the kind of league that truly wants their last place finisher to feel unadulterated pain, this is for you. Bonus points if you can get into an argument with someone dressed like Flo from Progressive. Additionally, any time a league-mate is nearby and says, “like a good neighbor, State Farm is there,” the last place finisher must do that league-mate’s bidding. In this punishment, the last place finisher must dress like Jake from State Farm for all of Super Bowl Week, including going to any parties while dressed in khakis and a red polo. Here’s the catch: they must tell the celebrity that they “need some encouragement for overcoming a persistent full-body rash.” 3. At the end of the season, the last place finisher will have to order a celebrity cameo video for the predetermined dollar amount. With this punishment, the league will set a dollar amount before the season. There’s a company called CAMEO that allows you to pay a celebrity for a personalized video greeting. Oh… here’s the catch: the loser must be wearing a brown bag over their head for the photos. The loser must take a series of professional quality family photos (or solo photos) a have them turned into Season’s Greetings cards, which are then sent out to everyone in the league. This is a callback from one of my favorite punishment ideas from last season. It may sound tame, but this sort of thing really changes a person. They can have one hour knocked off their total time for every waffle they eat. The last place finisher in your league has to spend 24 hours in a Waffle House. This punishment has been around for a few years, so I can’t rank it too high. That means they must purchase a ticket to a nearby WNBA game, go alone, pick a team to root for, buy merchandise, get body paint, and text updates to the rest of the league. Here’s the idea: the last place finisher in your league must go all out for a WNBA game. Personally, I follow the WNBA as a casual fan, but it seems clear to me that the Venn diagram of WNBA fans and fantasy sports last place finishers may not overlap. The punishment is effectively in the name, but please note that WNBA can be swapped with another sport or team that you simply don’t follow that closely. I saw this punishment on Twitter last year and felt the base idea was worth considering. They must take photographic evidence and they must suffer. The loser is forced to wear a league-approved jersey to the next wedding they attend. Not everyone loves weddings, but absolutely no one will love when you’re forced to wear a football jersey to the next wedding you attend. If you’re looking for a reusable punishment for your league, look no further than Trophy Smack. All the way from loser ribbons to loser mirrors and even to wearable toilet seats. They also offer a number of fun and affordable items that can be used to shame the worst of the worst. They offer some ridiculously customizable options for creating a sacred (and horrific) relic that is passed from loser to loser. There’s a place where happiness and fantasy football meet, and it’s called Trophy Smack. Without further ado, these are my personal favorite punishments for 2022. If you’re curious about last year’s recommended last place punishments, please check out this article on 2021’s Top 5 Last Place Punishments. For every league out there that’s looking for that perfect punishment for finishing last in your fantasy league, the following options are for you.
