Eh? Apparently not old enough as I have no idea what that is. You have my curiosity peaked.

Yep. Used them often when I was a kid.

Those balls were outlawed at my elementary school mere weeks after they hit US shores.

Google is brilliant with its image search function. I am now a bit more educated and worldly than I was 5 minutes ago. :tu

Of course, it was kind of a pain having to keep all those around. You'd lose 'em, sometimes break 'em. I finally upgraded to one of these. A marvel of technology at the time.

They'd get jammed, it wouldn't drop and next thing you know, you'd hear your diamond stylus needle getting torn up.

Re: How Old Are You?
 
Yes on all accounts. I remember when they started making those balls they were clear and looked like glass. I wonder if you can get the anymore? Hell, I don't even know what they were called, for real. I know what we called them, but I'm not sure it was the real name.

Yeah, lawn darts was a hell of a game; two players stand 20 feet apart and lob huge darts at each other.

I have all three. First is my BIL's but stored at my place. Second, I have a full set, and third I think we got rid of thanks to too many getting lost/vacuumed.

BTW, I'm 33 and I think I figured out the OP pic.

Know them ALL. The second pix (balls on the string - NOT the official name, which was C_ _ C _ _ _ S. They went off the marker because of the injuries from using them, and from them cracking apart in use, and causing injuries and damages. They were real beasts in terms of injuries caused!! I think I still have an Atari switch somewhere!!

Shane David.... I also had a 69 Chevelle (SS street-rod) for about 8 years, so I got to stomp that button many, many times! Which was a little more involved when I had a 4-speed in it.
