Vintage Games and Prizes


Horse Racing Game
Wildwood, NJ - August, 1986
I took this photo when I was six years old.  It's one of those games where players roll balls or something like that to make the horses run.  The player whose horse got to the end of the track won a prize.  The prizes that are in this photo include a stuffed alligator, a stuffed hippopotamus, and framed posters of Hulk Hogan and the Philadelphia 76ers.

One thing I didn't notice about this photo until today is that you can see my Grandpa's reflection in the glass of the game.  If you look at the bottom left hand corner, you can see him looking to the left on the far right hand side of the red rectangle.
