The incident in which Iraqi journalist, Muntadar al-Zeidi tossed his shoes at US President George W. Bush during a Baghdad press conference recently, has turned into a fast-moving Internet meme, spawning dozens of games and video pranks.

Let’s check out a few of the games which were inspired by this shoe throwing incident.

Sock and Awe
A pun on the US military strategy of “shock and awe”. This game gives the player 30 seconds to try to hit Bush as many times as possible, with shoes of course!

Bush shoe game

The game is pretty addictive but needless to say it’s difficult to hit President Bush in the face. I only managed to do 10 in one go… the best on the hall of fame is 35! Try yourself and see if you can beat the record! Play Sock and Awe.

Bush’s Boot Camp game

Bush’s Boot Camp game is slightly different although it offers the same level of fun and excitement.

In this game, you are the secret service. You need to fire at the shoes that were thrown at the President, otherwise the President loses health when he’s hit by the shoes. Try it, you will surely like the game!
