Sorry Vance, I LOVE scrabble. I even play it alone sometimes...I loved Boggle - but I haven't played it or seen it in stores in awhile now that I think of it. Monopoly (especially the Spongebob version...lol..) and Life. There are probably a ton others whose names aren't coming to mind at the moment.
Is scattergories (probably spelled all wrong) a board game? Trivial Pursuit.
When we were young, we always played board games at family gatherings. Thanks for the memories this question brings back. We had stopped for awhile, but we're back at it.
