Strat-O-Matic football and baseball board games ?

[Buckeye1980]

I jus had a thought to growing up when me and my cousin played Strat-O-Matic football and baseball board games and was wondering if anyone else around did? I looked up their website and they now have computer games. The board games were very realistic ...any one els ever play?

Going way old school, Mr. Bling has an electric vigrating football game. He still has all the pieces including the football.

I still have one too but my kids got a hold of all the players and lost them. miggletoys.com I think is a website where you can get team sets, NFL, come college or even blanks to paint yourself.

I remember the Coleco electric football games....I think they ran on vibration??

Here is a video...... Old School football game (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9sD1hmqBFs)


I had some hand held football game...all it had was lines on it denoting the players. This game is what actually taught me the game of football.....to this day, my dad still hums the tune from the game when he sees a touchdown!!:D

After some research, I think it was a Coleco handheld game I had too!
