Carnival stalls?

[Cosmo_ac]

Just curious if anybody remembers the types of games they would see at a carnival or fair. I remeber there was a ring toss, dunk tank, fun house, and deffinitly more i can't remember. Doing a bit of research for something i'm writing, so any games would be great.

Hmmm...

There's the game stand where you throw darts at balloons and try to pop them...

A shooting game where you are given so many rounds of ammo and you have to try to completely shoot out the a star on a piece of paper that acts as your target...

Throwing tennis balls or baseballs at standing jugs and trying to knock them over...

Try throwing ping pong balls into little round bowls filled with water and goldfish...

Pick a duck, where little plastic ducks float by and you pick one up and the number on the bottom correlates with a prize...

Throwing baseballs into large woven wicker baskets that are tilted at a 45 degree angle...

Fishing in a kiddie pool filled with dark colored water, and whatever fish you catch in the water has a number on it that correlates with a prize...

Shooting water at a bullseye that powers a jockey on a horse that's played against several players, and the first player to get their jockey over the finish line wins...

Skee-ball, throwing hard baseball sized balls up a slanted ramp and trying to land them in holes ranging from 10 points to 50 points...

Whack-a-mole...

Pinball...

Lots more, but those should probably give you at least some of what you're looking for in your story. Good luck!
