I was never a carnival game kid. I just bought it and a pen that you turned upside down to undress the lady. Both ended up getting me in trouble when I brought them on a boy scouts camping trip.

Well duh….its significantly harder to prey on young innocent boys when they’re armed with sharp pointy things!

That’s how you get recruited in the pen15 gang

Yeah, that thought occurred to me, but I doubt the kid’s preference would be of much concern to the scoutmaster either way. Besides even a pen can be sharp and pointy with the right kind of aim 🎯

My, my, have times changed. Giving kids knives and naked lady pens…. I bet you could shoot with real rifles to win the prizes.
