How to unlock the GONG SHOW achievement in Left 4 Dead 2 - Definitive Guide

In the carnival level, you will find a strongman bell minigame. It is right before the bumper cars, so if you go past those you have gone too far. You have to hit the red pad w/ any melee weapon, but there is a catch, you must have adrenaline active to make the bell ring. If no one in your party has a shot, then simply travel through the level until you find one and make your way back.

Edit: It has been proven you can use ANY melee weapon. This includes the katana that you frequently find in the picnic tent near the minigame. As long as you have adrenaline, you are good to go.

I got this achievement using the katana, so I'm fairly certain it will work. I have had people tell me that if you use the shot RIGHT before, sometimes it wont take, that if you wait a few seconds after and then do it that you should be good to go. I have also heard of people glitching for some reason and not getting this in an online game. (Not sure if it was versus or co op)

A point to note is that, as far as I know, only one person on the team can get this in one playthrough. when you get it, the bell flies off the top of the strongman game and it doesn't work anymore.

I tried this with both the katana and the axe, no luck. Used an adrenaline just prior to whackin the crap out of the red pad both times. Gonna try and do it with the guitar...

This achievement is for sending the weight to strike the bell on the Carnival level (Starting at Chapter 3 would save you some time). It is right before the bumper cars. You have to hit the red pad with ANY melee weapon, with adrenaline active to make the bell ring. Here is a video to help:

Campaign: Dark Carnival
Level 4: The Barns

Before you enter this level play through the previous so you can find yourself an adrenaline shot. Make sure you have a melee weapon and head out of the saferoom to your left. Use the adrenaline and hit the big red pad in front of the strong man game. Once you hit the bell the achievement will unlock.

Campaign: "Dark Carnival"
Level 4: Barns
Make sure you have adrenaline and a melee weapon. On the way you will come across an attraction that tests the strength of the impact; it stands out among the rest. When
you find it, use adrenaline and hit the red pillow with your melee weapon. If everything is done correctly, the bell will ring and you will receive the achievement.
