1984, took my newly wed North Dakota wife to the Boardwalk. She saw a stuffed dog with leiderhosen and wanted it. The arcade game was the Clown teeth. Knock out all three, win the prize. Teeth had long strands all around them, so I figured the ACTUAL teeth were pencil thin.

Threw the ball and hit the side of the mouth, hard plywood. The ball spun left and mowed down all the teeth in one shot. I laid the remaining balls down, got the dog and have never tried another carnival arcade again.

God must have wanted her to have that dog. And after 32 years of marriage, she still has it.
