carny games

[Lee Nelson]

hey there
I am trying to find out some information on where to buy carnival games. In particular that incredibly wacky "climb a ladder" game.
Does anyone know of a vendor for these contraptions??
My websearches are coming up empty.
I prefer to make my purchase off a person whos parents werent related.....but.....

You could try asking at the Believe It or Not (http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewforum.php?forum=23&3026) forum on the Magic Cafe--several old carnys post there and might have a lead.

Oh, even better would be the Sideshow World (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Sideshow_World/messages) Yahoo Group. Lots of current carnys there.

I dont know if they will have a ladder but I bet they could tell you where to go to find one.

that incredibly wacky "climb a ladder" game.


would you be referring to "Jacob's ladder"?

[Lee Nelson]

yes in some of my searches I found the name "Jacobs Ladder" mentioned but didnt know if it was a generic name for the game or a name given by a certain company.
The most common name I found was "Ladder Climb"
I could only find it to rent, not to buy. Maybe I should make one!!!

I thought that Jacob's Ladder was a horror movie about vietnam?
