A Blast From the Past: Punchboards!
We were recently reminded of a great old gambling game called the Punchboard. You surely have seen this type of game in action, most likely in such venues as The Price is Right.
But the truth is, these games were once all the rage! At least, so says Wikipedia. Of course, Wikipedia also mentions that they are ripe for cheating, but we know that if modern casinos were to bring these games back, they would be closely regulated.
So consider this a call to action to the casinos out there... We want to see some punchboard action again! Giant elaborate ones! Perhaps this could even spark a whole art craze to see who could create the biggest most elaborate punchboards! And how do you serve them up? Easy, when a member of your "players club", or however you name it, swipes their player card, they are entitled to one punch on your massive punchboard. Its a win/win for you and the players. Hold it on a big stage in a central spot, call some attention to it, and we have a recipe for fun!
So we here at Casino Snob has spoken, we want to see Punchboards make a comeback.
