Default wood all the way

I remember in the fifth grade bringing my players to school and my friend would bring his teams and we would tap the wooden desktops to move the players. I thought this guy was rich because he had all the teams! I couldn't believe it. I thouht I was living the good life when I ordered my first team, the "blue" Minnesota Vikings in 1969. That team was very popular then, and I just had my heart broken when Lombardi retired from the Packers, so I was on the Viking bandwagon that year.

I learned the fine art of "board tapping" at school but easily used that "new skill" to tap out several games when I broke the switch on my own board at home!
