Vintage Board Games (For A Laugh...Or A Shudder)

Not really vintage, but here's...Ghettopoly:

From one 'geek reviewer:

For those familiar with Monopoly but haven't seen Ghettopoly, there are the following changes. The properties now have colourful stereotypical names like Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard, Tyrones Gun Shop, Sum Yung Gai's Massage Parlor. The two 'utility companies', the waterworks and electric works have been replaced by a crack house and a pawn shop. The railway stations are instead Northside, Southside, Westside and Eastside Liquer stores. The Free Parking space is now marked 'Just loitering'. The jail is replaced with an Emergency Room. To exit you throw a '7' or '11' on two dice. Chance and Community Chest cards are replaced by Hustle and Ghetto Stash cards.

...

There are many editions of Monopoly, but the most familiar had the pieces like the Car, Boat, Top Hat, Dog, Iron, etc, at least in the UK they did.  These have been replaced by 7 shiny metal pieces representing the following. A Pimp, a 'Ho, a submachinegun, a basketball, a Marijuana leaf, a 40oz liquer bottle and a rock of cocaine.

I KNOW this is terrible, but I laughed like mad when I read this description. This is no game I'd ever want to own, much less play...but man, the furor this and other games cause among others, it just amazes me.

My mom bought me "Titanic: The Board Game" one Christmas 15 years ago. I looked through it as I have a morbid curiosity about me, but it's never been played.

If you play, take the iceberg.

LMAO!!! Sound advice for certain.   ;D
