Not much for memorabilia in my "shed," but if I were to do a little decorating and could retractable doors a la TPiR or LMaD in front of the TV I'd be a very happy guy.

I've got a Check Game cheque, a couple of ½ Off boxes, a 3 of Clubs from McHale Card Sharks, along with other posters, question cards, and promotional ephemera from years gone by. Plus a decent-sized board game collection.

I'm pretty well on my way to a fully-decorated office space. The icing on the cake would be replicating the CBS "eye" curtains from Studio 33.

I am a little embarrassed to say this, but when I became hooked the original show by age 10, I'd sometimes imagined having in the basement of my own home one day, an actual-sized, perhaps non-electronic Concentration game board!

No lie - I have a vivid memory of a dream I had when I was like 4 or 5, of the Dice Game table in our dining room.

Same age, but I wanted Lacey and Susannah's card holder from CS in the living room.

Maybe not the same age, but...

Turn your basement into the speakeasy from Met Het Mes Op Tafel. Tasteful and practical!

This reminds me. I'd base the whole room on the apartment from Smush - bar included - but keep all the other fixtures I mentioned.

/Klauss, you and Kevin can fight over who gets Lacey and who gets Susannah :P

If I had any money, I would invest in a business with that look.  A fine array of liquors on offer with a piano and singer in the front and a back room to hold poker tournaments.  To add to ambiance, have a machine that disperses just a little bit smoky mist with the scent of gin or wood used to age liquor.

I tried getting rid of the evidence as soon as I saw Kevin invaded my brain.  Damn, you are good.

I would probably get Legends of the Hidden Temple merch but there isn't much official merch out there for wall decoration and the like.

(Although a giant flag or poster with the Red Jaguars logo on it would really make the room perfect.)

If money was no object, a Vestaboard would certainly be a fun addition for game nights.

Once in a blue moon, when I REALLY need a laxative, I look at a Vestaboard again, and remind myself of the price, and that usually gets things moving tout suite.
