Seems like somebody in the marketing department of yesteryear had a rather unorthodox approach to board games. This risque ad leaves little to the imagination and plenty of questions about what exactly constituted family game night during the swinging '60s. While today's adverts are all about hashtag relatability, vintage ads were clearly no stranger to shock value. Who knew that a simple gathering over a game board could suggest such spicy evenings? Remember, Monopoly never started with a wink and an invitation like this one.

Offensive or funny? Maybe funny because what else can you do but laugh at something that was actually totally acceptable at one time? I'm not sure I would have liked being a woman in the past. What about you?

Too funny!! LOL

These ads make me cry from the inside, I am crying in my mind, what is wrong with people?

Too funny!!!

This is so funny! Love it

It is still the same just different methods and messages, depends on what they want to sell at the time, sometimes they create a trend and market it or use real problem people are suffering from to sell things that ppl don't want. once that product stops making enough profit they will change the product and with it the message again. the funny things tho is thatwhen ppl were eating healthy food they convinced ppl to eat junk food and now they are trying to go back to eating healthy.

I agree m4nd4 it's all the same just not as in your face

Some of these are spoofs not real ads

No. 30 !!

Better things to do with your hands, lmao!!!!

These are hilarious
