CHARLES FOLEY, 82
Inventor and co-creatir of the game Twister, died July 1, 2013. "Millions have contorted themselves into awkward and amusing positions." This was the first game to use humans as board pieces.
Debuted inj 1966 with the slogan "The Game That Ties You Up in Knots." Some people called it "Sex-In-A-Box." Sales really took off when Johnny Carson played it with Eva Gabor on "The Tonight Show." I'd like to play it with Annette.
Mr. Foley had 97 patents, but Un-Du became the product of choice form photographers, scrapbookers' law enforcement officials and the staff at the Library of Congress where it is used at an adhesive remover.
The Twister game was at all our high school parties in the late 60s. Talk about a great way to "brush up" against that someone you were interested in? Liz says the gitls felt the same way.
Thanks, Mr. Foley.
