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.

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 July 15, 2020, 06:05 PM
