Jimmy Fallon’s “egg roulette” game is a fun example of the negative hypergeometric random variable. Through activities and simulations, participants will study variability and inference as they relate to this game. Media clips will also be used to motivate other topics in statistics including the dangers of confusing correlation with causation.
