I'm not too far from 1987. I think I got the first game set as a Christmas gift in 1990. Christmas 1990 here too! 13 years old and it was awesome! I would run a card every 5 days and mark it on my calendar, looking forward to it and annoying my sister with telling her all about the upcoming matches, LOL. This game has brought me so much joy. The next Christmas my mom bought me Invasion 2088. Well, I found it a few weeks ahead of time, steamed the envelope open, took it to the library, and copied all the cards! I deserved an Oscar for my performance on Christmas morning when I opened that COTG envelope! I have no regrets!

I bought my first set after seeing the ad in PWI. We ran so many cards. We then started drafting real wrestlers and built stables up...played that way for years.

I ordered 2087 and some other wrestling card game at the same time...the other game came without instructions (they came almost a month later). So, that was a downer and I didn't play either for a bit until Spike 'Poster Boy'....that ad was awesome! Played and played...although I have hit a slump the last year or so, my interest is returning. The game seems to always draw me back in and has always "been there" when times get tough...it is kinda like the gaming equivalent of chicken soup.

I got the game for my thirteenth birthday.1987 I'm 43 now..I saw the ad in Pro Wrestling Illustrated...I rolled out notebooks full of cards at my kitchen table...My mom always wanted to color in the cards..Unfortunately the older cards look rough because my mom was a heavy smoker and I left the words out.I and received one of those postcards from Tom..For some reason I didn't get Dreggs in one of the sets.
