Skittle Pool Tank Tops
Description: Introduced in the early 1970s by Aurora Plastics Corporation, Skittle Pool was a tabletop billiards game that put a unique spin on traditional pool, replacing the familiar cue stick with a swinging ball suspended from a metal frame. Players aimed a stationary cue ball using a rotating mechanism, then released the pendulum-like striker to send the cue ball crashing into a rack of miniature billiard balls. Played on a compact, green-felt table measuring approximately two feet square, Skittle Pool offered much of the challenge of traditional billiards without requiring a full-sized pool table. The game was part of Aurora's popular Skittle series and was famously promoted by Don Adams, best known for playing Maxwell Smart on TV's Get Smart.
