POT GAME PULLED FROM TOY FAIR
CALGARY - The New York Toy Fair is weeding out a British Columbia board
game that lets players run their own marijuana-grow operation.
The Grow-Op Game, manufactured by Vancouver's Bored Games Corp., has been
pulled from this year's exhibit because the Toy Industry Association said
it goes against the values they're trying to portray and their mandate to
support the positive development of children.
"It really did surprise me," said Bored Games spokesman Ivan Solomon.
