A strange little side quest
Between one round of Whack a Wiseguy and the next, this is worth knowing: A major archery competition held at Finsbury in England in 1583 drew about 3,000 participants. The timeline takes another interesting turn: In 1958, Tennis for Two used an analog computer and an oscilloscope to turn simple physics into a playable tennis-like demonstration. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Whack a Wiseguy feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
