  1. I don't know if this has been discussed yet but I've always wondered if anyone ever played the game {Play Ball. Played by Two) on the back of 1978 Topps cards.

    I have to admit that as a kid I never once made an attempt to play it.

  2. I played the game on the back a few times with my next door neighbor. Not too many times, but we did try it out.
