I had the SI game.I played Stanford vs USC with Dick Threlkeld waiting out the Angela Davis trial or maybe in a large camper in front of the Hearst mansion while waiting for Patty to jump out of a taxi and into her dad’s arms (fat chance). I am ahead the entire game but it’s nip and tuck and Dick tosses an 80 yard TD pass on the last play. Aside from sending our runners out for chow every day it was the most exciting day of the coverage.

I also had Foto Electric Football that had a reveal lit screen and a bunch of plays. Also the True Action where you lined up the tiny players on both sides and then turned on the juice. It played out as a scatter drill. Got boring so our gang hit the streets for a rough game on the asphalt. Still have it.

There was a best seller in the 60’s called “The Universal Baseball Association, J Henry Waugh Proprietor” by Coover that dealt with dice baseball and its effect on a grown man’s life.
