Many fantasy football managers are competing for playoff spots and championships right now.
But in some leagues, there's also another battle going on: The fight to avoid last place.
That's because a lot of leagues have a punishment designed specifically for the competitor who comes in dead last.
Finish 11th out of 12? No worries. Maybe a little lost pride. But finish 12th? There are a lot of ways this can turn bad.
Maybe your league is still looking for a punishment for the overall loser. Or maybe you just want some laughs.
Here are some ideas gathered from all sorts of lists that really stand out as funny.

Funniest fantasy football punishments
Taking the SAT
This one gets a chuckle out of us every time. The loser has to sit for the standardized test (and hey, let them take the ACT if they prefer).
Waffle House challenge
A classic, as well. The loser has to spend 24 hours at a Waffle House. For each hour they want to deduct from the time, they've got to eat a pancake.
Lemonade stand
The Wall Street Journal shared this one recently. One league's loser has to run a lemonade stand in front of their house for an entire day.
Karaoke
The rest of your league mates get to watch, and hopefully pick the songs, as you get on stage at an open-mic night and belt out some tunes.
A tattoo
Want to never forget this horrible, awful, very bad season? Let's get it marked in ink somewhere on your body.

The milk mile or beer mile
Chug something, then run a mile, or a half-mile, or whatever distance the league decides. This one may not be particularly funny for anyone involved.
A photoshoot
The league members come up with some kind of goofy photoshoot or self-portrait to be done. Bonus points if it is required to be hung up in the loser's house.
Matching Joey Chestnut
Shoutout to Reddit for this one. A loser had to eat the same number of hot dogs in a row that Joey Chestnut did to win that year. It clearly doesn't have to be as fast, but it's the only food allowed until you get through those 70-plus hot dogs.
The hot pink jersey to... church?
Another one from the Wall Street Journal: One loser had to get a special, hot pink jersey and wear it to a church service (and this guy had to get up and read at one point, too).
The servant
Some leagues find a way to make sure the loser has to do their every whim, be that fetching them beers at the next draft or keeping things clean on a friend-cation.
An odd date
You can go on a date with a stuffed animal, or a cardboard cutout, or whatever your leaguemates get a kick out of. Bonus points if they sit across the restaurant and have a nice buddies meal together.
