I have an old skittles game board and stand made by the students of Berea College. It is a nicely made item.

I’ve got an unopened set of Yard Darts in my closet. Box is mint and still has the price tag on it. One day I’ll break them out.

Whoa...Flashback! We got one for Christmas when I was about 10 or 11. Little brother and I played hell out of that for a LONG time. Little plastic rings for "balls".

One of my neighbors has this. Maybe not the old version, but a newer version. Same exact basic game.

Building on Sig2340's board-based games:
Stratego
Dogfight
NFL Strategy

Had a CLASSIC Monopoly set with wooden game pieces (wish I knew the copyright year of that one)
Played "Liverpool Rummy" as a family just about every weekend
HOURS playing Cribbage with a board and pegs my Grandpa built (still have it)

We didn't have a WOPR, though... Big Grin Big Grin

We have Lawn Darts and and a croquet set in the garage. The darts absolutely horrify our younger friends and neighbors, which makes them even more fun.

Anyone else ever play these? (A few of the many I owned and spent hours playing with a couple of similarly-minded friends.)

Do not put this in a position where there is anything of value (glass) behind you. Wink good times.
