Or, ..... at a "duck race".

aha--I think it is a duck pond duck toy--from the fairs!!

State fair here had a game where ducks like that floated across in a little trench !!  Think it was a shooting game but can`t remember the details !! If you hit the duck,, prize you got was written on bottom !! Usually a small stuffed animal or such !!

hello mart==I remember exactly what you are speaking of, the duck just looked so familiar and now I remember why--state fair here for me--do they even do that anymore I wonder

[KC]

That is what I was referring to.  Remember playing that one!  That or they had like a rubber band toss that you could toss and if it successfully went down around the bill/head to sit "just right" on the neck...you won a prize that was written on the bottom!  They had several kinds with mouth partially open and some with wider to make it more difficult!

thanks KC==yes your website is wonderful--there is a collector of all things...found it interesting she said she found no green ducks..too much like the water perhaps?

[mart]

I don`t know if that game is still around or not !! I remember it was three throws or shots (depending on which game you played) for 25 cents !!

[KC]

Wow Mart!  That is going way-way back at that cost!  LOLOL  I can remember when Six Flags over Texas had it even!  They may still have something like it.  Haven't been in that section over the past few years that we have gone!

I think it was late 70's early 80's that my kids played in the bathtub with them.
