Evel Knievel Stunt Game, Ideal

Vintage Game Demonstration: Evel Knievel Stunt Game from Ideal (1974)

Editor’s Note: Evel Knievel Stunt Game was modelled after the American stuntman and entertainer famous for his daredevil exploits. In Ideal’s battery-operated game, Evel circled the gameboard on his motorcycle as players performed stunts and earned trophies for their execution. The six stunts represented in the game included were Barricade, Big Wheel, Loop, Pit Stop, Stop on Ramp, and Wheelie.
