When me and the MR started dating, we went with another couple to a festival. We smoked so much weed and hash on the way. Was flying pretty high. I don't even remember which festival it was. I wanted this stuffed bear so bad. I believe it was knock the milk cans over game. Future MR tried and failed and I pouted and used all my wiles to get him to try some more. $104.00 later the guy running the booth gave it to him. I guess he had pity on him. I was happy for a brief second until the loss of money sunk in. Well, future MR shoulda took that as a sign. LOL!

I can sure relate to winning one of those large Teddy Bears. Right after we were married, we went to our state fair with another couple. Wife saw this 4' tall blue and white bear. This was were you toss coins onto glass plates and hope they did not slide off, which they always did. I spent a lot of money trying to win her that bear, with no luck. I finally asked the guy how much for the bear. He had to check with the owner to see if they could sell it outright. He came back with a price and so I handed him the cash. Maybe 10-15 years ago the wife said she wanted to toss the bear because it was taking up to much room. My reply was short and simple: " If the bear goes...........so do you". We still have the bear
Mine disappeared when I went into the service. As a matter of fact, a lot of my stuff did.
