Chicken Tic-Tac-Toe


What was up with that?



reply

I don't know hahah! I watched the movie again last night and was like what the heck? How could the chicken beat him every time? It didn't make sense? Obviously the chicken was just pecking at the button and there was a computer inside that played the game against the player but still. It made me laugh!

"Good times! Noodle salad!"

I've played Chicken Tic-Tac-Toe before and I'm not sure how it works, but the poultry always wins.

I never really liked that scene because I think that the chicken is SO closed in. It's just such a small space for it...I think it's animal abuse! It's my only unsettling scene in the movie...but I love this film.

reply

I'm with you. Always hate that scene in a further perfect movie.

When I first moved to NYC in '85, Times Square was still decadent and sometimes dangerous. I remember a chicken tic-tac-toe setup in the subway station. I played twice and lost twice. Don't know how it was done!

"May I bone your kipper, Mademoiselle?"

reply

Yes it made me sad, very abusive. Poor thing :(

I hated seeing the chicken. Amazing how times change. Would never be allowed today.

reply

"Would never be allowed today...." except that it is. In Chinatown. They're still there.

Are they really? Ugh, the Chinese are barbarians.

reply

It's a big gaming thing in Chinatown. Yes, they're still there. It's harmless to the chicken. And as stupid as it is, there are still people who play it.

Harmless to the chicken? To be locked in a small box for God knows how many hours a day. What on earth are you talking about?

reply

Well, first of all, it's not "LOCKED" in a small box for hours. A chicken (I used to raise them) needs little space -- and they change them frequently. Not only that -- the stalls are open only for a couple of hours a day.
