I remember playing this game at my friend's birthday party when I was in maybe 1st or 2nd grade. This was a popular game back then, and I can even remember the commercial theme song....Hungry, hungry hippos.....hungry, hungry hippos! The whole object of the game was to "eat" as many of the 20 white marbles as you could, and the one who "ate" the most marbles was the winner. To make the hippos "eat," you had to press down on their tails, which would make their mouths open up. The hippos even had names...Henry, Homer, Happy and Harry. I never actually owned this game, but I sure wanted it! Luckily, my friend had it and we played it often.
