Let's twist again! Milton Bradley was accused of selling sex in a box after they released the phenomenally successful action game Twister in 1966.

Johnny Carson demonstrated the game on the "Tonight Show" along with the low cut gown wearing Eva Gabor who was a guest that night. vintage postcards

With Eva splayed out on all fours on the polka dot vinyl mat, Johnny twirled the spinner and took his turn. When he climbed on top of Eva, the studio audience went into hysterics, screaming and laughing. More than three million copies of Twisters were sold during its first year of release after that show!
