I was having the very same thought.
I texted my niece who is deployed in Kuwait right now asking if she would play it. She responded quickly with, “Sure, I’d play ”.
So I’m ordering it. Something to look forward to when she returns.
I just ordered mine. Memory lane here I come!
I have this game. It definitely came from a mail order catalog - does anybody remember that? I believe it was all horse stuff, but mostly consisted of themed decor and household items, not tack.
Chamisa Ridge, maybe?
I could also see…what was it called…Back In The Saddle, maybe? carrying something like this.
I know exactly what magazine you’re talking about and the name is escaping me!
I had a weird epiphany about that magazine and a few other childhood horsey things that I googled last year, but that was a year ago and far from memory now. Maybe it will randomly hit me today.
Yes, I’m pretty sure that was it
Loved this game, and that sales magazine was def Back in the Saddle. What a fun trip down memory lane!
Did anyone have Derby Days?
I remember getting this board game as a Christmas gift as a kid, and I was OBSESSED. I used the cards to inspire my own imaginative play most of the time, but I know my parents played the actual games with me a couple times. I should see if my mom still has it kicking around somewhere.
Imagine my surprise when scrolling thru tiktok last night, HerdYourHorses game came up!
I still have it in my storage unit I think.
I used to just set it up and jump the horses when no one would play with me.
