What a GREAT story @pyrowngs! You might make that one into a post! That "janitor" is like the "janitor" in Bruce Almighty, huh? Wow... those were the days my friend, we thought they would never end... The Janitor actually taught you something that really helped you in life - the rest of the "teachers" maybe not so much... I made this set because I looked on ebay to see if I could buy one and they all seemed very flimsy in my price range, so I just decided to make one - and try NOT to buy anything since I have a ton of art supplies... and then it occurred to me that I could "give" it to my roommate for "xmas" so that he could teach me the game - and get him out of his room to socialize more...i am so glad the story inspired you! I am going to do something with papermache and salt-flour dough now - like maybe some portraits? Not sure.
