When that’s what there was that’s what you played. And it was good. But I discovered Talking Football. That was great.

I didn’t have electric football as a kid, but had the taking football with the records you put in the record player…..I always loved getting “a leaping interception”

Still have fields and about 15 nfl teams...we played electric football for years. The offense controlled the buzzer and could stop it once during the play to redirect up to 3 players and the defense could also redirect 3. The fields got bigger over the years. We even kept player stats. There are electric football leagues now.

aS the years went on I started to twek things ended up playing tackle. The ball carrier ran until he was pushed out of bounds or stopped cold and pushed back, ah the first 10 yards, then once past 10 yards it was back to touch.

Would loved to have been in a league, how cool would that be?

On passes I rolled three dice, two white and one red, only the white counted odd was complete, even incomplete, three six's or 1's...INT.

Nice...we rolled dice as well on pass plays and place kicks. The longer the pass was and if defenders were within 5 yds of the receiver, the odds for a completion went down. We had tons of fun. Had to order new teams and equipment by filling out a form and mailing it.

Talking football was also awesome..."quarterback is sacked 10 yards back...fumble."

Hell, I thought the roach was in the game. His air skills would be a difference maker.

Shedding a tear of nostalgia here. I only had the red v yellow guys. All I remember is games between my brother or dad always ended in a 0-0 tie, or someone throwing the game board and scattering all the little guys.

Kid down the street, parents had no money, but he had electric baseball. His mom was also a late hippie or early dirt person, so we had to play by tapping the board. Could not use electricity on games.
