Title: Concentration-related
Post by: carlisle96 on October 08, 2012, 03:55:32 PM
While cracking open a National Beer during last night's Yankees-Orioles game, I noticed that the underside of the cap had a rebus with what looks a lot like the original Norm Blumenthal Concentration artwork. If Norm is out there, I wonder if he knows what the source of these puzzles are (which became better viewing for us Os fans during the bottom of the 9th Sunday night).

I remember seeing a rebus puzzle on the cap of a Heineken in the late 70s.

Someone built a Classic Concentration gameboard with trilons. See it on Flickr (http://"http://www.flickr.com/photos/53611855@N00/5638270426"). I'm impressed!

And it's by "pds319". Considering how well he did with a replica of the Wheel, I'm not surprised at all. :)

pds319 is Paul Stack. That Concentration board, along with his homemade Wheel of Fortune, and a good word from me helped him secure work with the big boys in Hollywood.

One of his current gigs is a game producer for "Watch What Happens Live". In addition, he has contributed to a number of pilot developments.

This is true along with creating the graphics for the show. I absolutely do owe so much to Dan along with a special thanks to Corey Cooper. These two are just class acts.

Thanks for watching Jake! You can count on if there's a game with a bit of classic game show flavor, It's one of my babies. Nothing like that tonight though, only people throwing salad dressing at each other. :)
