1216672 2011-07-14 05:00:00 I was having a nostalgia attack after skyping with daughter this morning. She asked if I still had a record called The Race Game. It is an old time party game, you put the record on and people bet on which horse will win. It has a different winner each time with about 1 dozen possibilities.
Well, I dug down amongst my old vinyls and there it was.
How many of you remember having the record or playing the Race Game?

1216673 2011-07-14 05:11:00 Me. When I was a child we had it on a 78, all was well until it got a crack on it then it wouldn't play properly. A few years ago I bought a vinyl 78 copy of it but recently sold it as I didn't have a 78 turntable to play it on.

Milligan was Irish - Jones is a bit Welsh, and never the twain Spikes shall be Beetlebombed - (which was Feitlebaum anyway, to my infinite disappointment many years ago.)
Was Escalado where you put the horses on the mat and went cranky?
