80s Board Games

I am a board game fan and I recall trouncing the crap out of my parents in Trivial Pursuit, Genius Edition and Monopoly (my mothers advice that’s made me winner all my life at this game: buy everything you land on and have no mercy with houses). My best friend’s family still collects board games but for the most part the personal EVERYTHING of apps and phones has replaced those corny family times trying to bankrupt each other or get to the end of the game of LIFE first. Fun times gone by….

Does anybody remember setting up Mouse Trap and then being too exhausted to play the game??? And just about every tv show and movie had its own board game, which made every Wish Book chock full of that Christmas’s good times to be had from Milton Bradley and Parker Bros.
