Nice story! I got a question about game play - GTB made a AAB version of this game called Lariat. I thought maybe yours was a Lariat with the wrong BG, but then I looked at IPDB and saw the other differences between the two game's PFs...mostly point values. So anyways - the WOW on the Lariat PF as the top vari-target value makes sense, but on WWW what happens when you get a WOW? Free game? Mystery score?
Also very nice that the paper was mostly intact - in the original pic I see pieces of the original paperwork envelope - to me this is the worst things mice like to do...shred any original score cards and labels...very happy to read later on that you found them inside. Congrats!
