    The Mattel guys must have been going crazy trying to reproduce Milton Bradley's Twister success with a cheap-to-make body contact game (visions of Mad Men). I've never heard of Tight Squeeze (and I was 20 when this game came out, so I should have), but the spinner and the commercial are wonderful.

    that is crazy! I'm surprised it didn't take off with the teen crowd...come on, teenage boys getting to stand that close to a hot girl?! Maybe the girls we're smart enough to say to heck with that lame game!

    That brought back memories of being crammed onto rush hour subway trains in Tokyo.

    *Shudder*

    I wonder how many people were seriously injured playing that game. I have no sense of balance, and can see myself tipping over, pulling everyone else down on top of me!

    I wouldn't have been able to say no to something that awesome either!
