I was looking at crap on ebay recently and got this idea. I would love to buy some of these and relive my childhood, but turn them into drinking games.

one of the illest memory games ever. i played the fuck outta this pizza game like clock work.

I almost bought this around x-mas because i figured it would be a nice way to pass time before going out to the bars on the weekend while waiting for the slowest mother fuckers on the planet to get ready.
The little fish mouths actually open and close and latch onto your finger. They provide you with about 4 mini fishing poles. (Choking Hazard Skampoe)
I know they look better than gold fish crackers

CANDYLAND.
Imagine this on shrooms.

PUREUNCUTFUCKINGMADNESS.
If I played this at my age I would start throwing punches.

My ol' man still had his original lying around. Yes I know, this looks like a stereotypical cracka game but its actually pretty damn hard. Would make a great drinking game.

Wayy too addictive. I would still play this today.

teaches you the real rules of life
*everyone has a price
*can't make no money while incarcerated
*always try and get free parking
*community chest(programs) are for suckers
*it takes a certain type of vulture to build housing in the ghetto
*if you run the banking system you will never go broke

i gave mine to my son. it only has about 1/2 the ball bearings and only one slider but that makes every shot that much more valuable.

THIS GAME WAS FUN AS HELL BUT WE NEVER EVEN BOTHERED TO LEARN THE RULES OR READ THE BOX.
we put the mega thick rubber bands on the weapons and took turns shooting at eachother from 8 f till the main tower fell--- mode 1
mode2 was crossfire the medieval version.
