Christmas was when I'd gotten my Tudor 618 board under the tree, with the Rams and Packers as the packaged teams. We'd just settled into the house on Gaines St. and it was a year or maybe two that I was first introduced to electric football. One of my friends down the street had his set with the Falcons and another team I can't recall now after 30+ years. That set was in my closet at the old house when it went under five feet of water in the New Orleans flood.
I've now got two game sets I won off e-Bay. But I'd trade them both in a flash if I could have that old 618 back.
