You probably never owned this game, but the commercial is burned into your brain

I actually DID own a copy! It was a fun board game, but nowhere near as dope as the game was portrayed by that commercial.
“CROSSFIYAAAAAAAAAHHH”
CROSSFIRE!
I’m sitting here like “man, I don’t really remember that” when all of a sudden “ca ca ca CROSSFIYA!!!!!” pops into my head.
Guess you’re right, lol.
Oh I def remember owning this, I wish I still had it
I DID own this as a child. And yes, I am that old 😂
You’ll get caught up in the the…
Oh I loved that game as a kid. That is until enough of the ball bearings inevitably got lost that the game was unplayable 😑
I loved this game when i was a kid but no one would ever play it with me. Parents got bored of it quick.
I did have a copy we got at a garage sale. So glad that we didn’t pay full price for it. We maybe played it 10 times total.
Had one it was so much fun
You mean the commercial where the “bad” kid is in the leather jacket?
I think another commercial that will forever be burned into my head 2 of them actually is the Wonderball commercials “what’s in a wonderball…” the chocolates with candy inside or the Caprisun commercials where they turn into Liquid Metal… and just fly around everywhere but no one questioned it.
I owned it, in the 80’s. Different box art back then.
The stupid guns always jammed.
I had this! It wasn’t actually fun.

get caught up in it!
I was upset to learn that it didn’t come with a leather jacket and I couldn’t fly in over flames on one of those spinny things.
Look at all these rich kids that had toys 🥹
I lived vicariously through others..and the AVGN Board James episode.
One time I heard kids at school singing this song with the lyrics “Fudge-packer, fudge-packer, FUDGE PACKEEEER!!!”
Me being an innocent Mormon, I thought they were singing about workers that actually put fudge into boxes, and the randomness cracked me up, so I sang it at my Dad later that night and he got mad.
My parents still have it. My kids love playing it when they go over there. And the theme song gets stuck in my head whenever they play it.
We owned this. And it was awesome.
This looks like a very American thing (yes I don’t know what it is)
I did own it, it was so fucking obnoxiously loud.

One day I drove by a car burning on the freeway. The first thing in my head was ..” CAR FIYAAAAAAAH !”
I did own that game. The problem I had was I had no one to play with. It’s a two player game and I was an only child. At the time when it was released I had no friends. So I never officially got to enjoy the game as the actors did in the commercial.
I have never seen this in my life.
I OWNED IT. PLAYED THE SHIT OUT OF IT WITH MY COUSIN!!
Definitely owned it. It was fun but tiring lol
I did own that game and I actually loved it. I think I was the only one who did, though
Commercial for those who’ve never seen it: https://youtu.be/rCwn1NTK-50
“You probably never owned this game” is pretty presumptuous. My sister and I played this game all the time as kids
I assumed it was going to be hungry-hungry hippo.
ANY TIME I grab an object and excitedly hold it up as the solution to a problem, I sing the name of the object to the tune of the Crossfire song. It works for just about anything, and it gets me totally Amped:
(“cross-FIIIIRRRRRE!”)
“More toilet PAPEEEERRRRR!”
“Extra QUESOOOOO!”
“Phone CHARGERRRRR!”
“Takin’ some NY-QUILLLLL!”
“I found my CAR KEEEYYYS!”
Definitely try it out in your own life and let me know how it goes!
I still have mine!
I never owned it but I did audition for a commercial for that game when I was a kid. My mom put me in modelling courses and arranged an audition. I sat in a room and played it with another kid. I didn’t get the part.
As a child I always wanted this. As an adult I remembered the commercial and told my wife all about it. She doesnt remember the commercial, she did however BUY IT FOR ME FOR CHRISTMAS!!!!! And it is everything I hoped for.
I used to play this ALL THE TIME with my childhood buddy.
Sadly he committed suicide May 26th 2022.
RIP, Nate. I will always remember you ❤️
