I don't get posting of Blast from the Past items that are still readily available and never really went away. I've seen these in various stores and restaurants in Calgary for the past couple of years.

I seem to recall some controversy where someone pirated a TV station signal dressed like Max Headroom and started ranting about politics and doing perverted things.
With the internet making trolling and broadcasting nonsense so easy nowadays, our kids will never no the wonders of pirate radio and television.
Here it is:
I think this is the first time I actually saw it, other than just clips on the news.

Yeah, this is a Reddit thread posted a while back where the poster claims to know who was behind the incident.
I remember playing this, also a fellow Dalhousie elementary alum.....

Then I asked a couple of my buddies in Edmonton if they ever played it, and none of them had. So maybe it was just a Calgary thing, but that game was awesome, and those guys definitely missed out.

I definitely played it in grade 7. There was only one square at my school so it wasn't easy to get a spot. It's funny, we played that game all year as much as we could but now, for the life of me, I don't even know how it's played. I only remember one cheap move where you would stand in your square, reach over to your opponents' square and kind of pull-bounce the ball back towards you so there was no way they could return it. We called it "like a real man" as sarcasm was not lost on a bunch of 12 year olds.
