  • Patent number: 4726592
    Abstract: A novel amusement apparatus and method of use includes a container/play board, a plurality of hollow cylinder means of varying internal diameters and heights, and a plurality of balls of varying resiliency. The container/play board has leaf members hingedly interconnected to a base plate whereby in a first position such members are disposed in a horizontal playing configuration to provide upper rebound surfaces and in a second position the board forms a box-shaped container means for storing the components of the apparatus therewithin. In use, players position various of the cylinder members sequentially on the base plate and the balls are sequentially dropped onto the rebound surfaces in attempts to form a ball trajectory to the surface and then into the cylinder member.
