GO BUCKS!

Stop touching me!

Haha... I have that print in my basement.
It's called "A Friend in Need"

Honestly, no basement or game room is complete without one of the "dogs playing poker" prints.

Here's the full image ... showing the reason it's called "A Friend in Need"

They are dogs! Dogs playing poker!

Sorry, I couldn't keep myself from quoting Homer Simpson. BTW, weren't there in Traveler or any other SF game intelligent dogs or anything?

Anyway, dogs are rubbish at poker. Whenever they get a good hand their tails start wagging.

I remember when WB had retail stores, there was a print of cartoon dogs playing poker featuring all kinds of characters from classic cartoons. I have been looking for that print forever and never found one.

I own a t-shirt of Snoopy and 4 of his relatives playing poker. Black shirt with image colors that suggest the old "painting on black velvet" look.

If I remember correctly - one of the prints at the WB store was meant to look like black velvet also.

What would make this picture really rock is to replace the seascape painting in the background with a velvet painting of Elvis.

I *loved* the WB store at Fairfield Commons mall in Ohio. I went to that mall just to go there. Hated to see it go because they had so much awesome stuff.

Just got the expansion yesterday with the extra blanks. I think I should print this on one of them. It would make me smile everytime I played.

Glad you like it! My husband and I laugh every time we look at it. :-)

(FYI - I made a somewhat cleaner version (fixed the part behind the instructions) that's uploaded just a few images past this one, so I recommend using that one if you add it to your cards.)
