Hot Slut Of The Day!
Zimm Zamm!
Oh, the late-70s and early-80s, a much, much more glamorous time when even while playing a complicated, sweat-inducig sports game, players brought the glamour and hotness (see: that hotter-than-Scott-Baio-alike with freshly waxed legs in painted-on nut huggers and that blossom with a Raquel Welch mane). The cover of that Zimm Zamm box wasn’t accurate, because that ball obviously would’ve exploded from being exposed to that much beauty and glamour. Obviously.
Zimm Zamm, which sounds like a cross between a Spice Girls song lyric and a knock-off brand of Zima, came out sometime in the 70s. It was the athletic baby of a tetherball and tennis. Zimm Zamm was a two-player game, and each player got a paddle and hit a ball attached to a rope. Like tetherball, the goal was to get the ball and rope all the way around the pole. But unlike tetherball, I don’t think you risked breaking your finger bones on that pole as much. I don’t mind breaking my hands on a hard pole, but not like that!
Here’s a commercial for Zimm Zamm from the early-80s:
That commercial is definitely Tchaikovsky’s proudest moment as a composer and artist. Because you haven’t heard Swan Lake until you’ve heard it played by a kazoo in a commercial for a lawn game. Let me correct myself real quick. Not just any lawn game but Zimm Zamm!
