skee-ball
Rolling ball arcade
Skee-ball is an arcade game where players roll balls up a ramp to land in holes of varying point values.
The game originated in the early 1900s and became a staple of boardwalks, arcades, and family entertainment centers.
Players accumulate tickets based on their scores, redeemable for prizes: We played skee-ball until we had enough tickets for the stuffed animal.
