hello everyone
i hope all of you are doing well. it is early i suppose but i want to wish all of you a MERRY CHRISTMAS. i hope the next year will be a good one for all of you. my arms are not doing very well and i can hardly raise them right now. this is off of the subject but i buy certain types of old electric football sets and/or players. if by chance any of you have one in your garage or attic and do not wish to keep it please let me know. this is a hobby i have had for 50 years this month. in 1971 i won the national championship. please keep safe, all my best,
gary

Re: hello everyone
Gary, I hope your Christmas is well and you and family have a great one, buddy! You know, as a child, I never really did play the electric football. I only played a few times at my friend's house. Maybe I can see if I know of anybody that has an old one.

Re: hello everyone
It's a cool hobby, though, buddy. I liked it when I played with ym firend, but I just never really played it too much, especially at your level and the natl. championship and all.

Re: hello everyone
glad to see you posting here again gary. i wish you a very merry Christmas too! an interesting hobby. i never had one of those games. i always wanted one until i played it at a friend's house then i decided it wasn't what i wanted after all. my gaming hobby is board war and battle games, especially the old avalon hill games. panzer leader is my favorite, followed by squad leader. are any of ya'll familiar with these kind of games?

Re: hello everyone
WHEN I WON THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP I HAD PLAYERS I COLLECTED FROM 6 DIFFERENT STATES. THIS WAS THE DAYS BEFORE VIDEO GAMES CAME INTO VOGUE. THEIR WERE PROBABLY 1000 PLAYERS THEN FOR EVERY ONE PLAYER TODAY. THEIR IS A VAST DIFFERENCE IN THE PLAYERS FROM THE VARIOUS COMPANYS THAT MADE THE SETS. MOTHOM I AM FAMILIAR WITH BATTLE AND THEIR SEEMS TO BE A WAR GAME BACK IN MY YOUTH BUT I CANNOT RECALL THE NAME OF IT. KEEP WELL ALL,
GARY

Re: hello everyone
I used to play Panzer Leader 25 years ago. The Panzer Mark IV always did a number on the one on one with the Matilda and Shermans.
