Must have the hand painted players, that changes everything.

Well, lets just say...we caught her SITTING on it.....for extended periods of time......with no players on the field.

You know....if you don't understand, then.....as Bernie liked to say...."I'm sorry for ya."

My brother gave me his. I used to love that thing. I used to pretend it was a real game and I set everything up and yell at the man with the ball "follow your blockers!"

Dude, why make stuff up? Everybody who plays that game knows any weight on the board is going to ruin the vibrating, it vibrates because the board weighs nothing.

I had all the NFC teams at one time.
Even ordered the Saints and Houston Oilers in home & away uniforms.
Had the Super Bowl one with the cowboys and Steelers. Then my wife bought me the 49ers and Bengals one as a collectors item.

You could turn the green guides at the bottom to make your guys move right or left. Timer was that plastic wheel that moved in the end zone when you turned on the power.

My friends and I would have football playoffs for hours on these when it was cold outside.

I played mine for hours. My friends loved mine then they got one and we brought our teams over to play each other.

I saved it and gave it to my son who loves to play football and he plays Madden.

He was not impressed and said “You must not of had Madden back then.”

Ouch.

I came here looking for stories of Roach Barry Sanders, juking the electric players out of their cleats for 60–yard TDs on the reg.

Yep, you could alter where these guys went, the cool thing was no injuries, no contract problems.

Hand painted a must. The Steelers must have looked cool.
