I used to have the game stadium checkers when I was kid, which this game is modeled on. But for those of you that also had that game, don't be fooled: this item is half the size of that game and I have no idea why. I was shocked to see how small they made it, or else I have a false image of what it used to be like. I am pretty sure they used regular marbles for the game, but these plastic balls are not much bigger than pellets.

The rules of the game, in my opinion, are not entirely clear. Since we got it for Christmas, I tried it once, but didn't find it very exciting, nor did my kids. Cannot recommend.

3.0 out of 5 stars Game was smaller in size than expected, January 30, 2007

The game is only about 7 inches across. The small size of the game makes it difficult for anyone with bigger than 10 year old hands to play.

4.0 out of 5 stars New Version of an Old Classic, January 18, 2007

I was trying hard to remember the name of a game my uncle used to have in the 60's, and then I did the right search to come up with "Stadium Checkers." This new version is smaller than that, so the "marbles" (actually small balls of plastic) are cheaper. I would have preferred to pay a little more to get regular sized marbles. The kids, who didn't know any different, were happy with it anyway for Christmas!
