I remember playing with one of those!!!

We used to play a game where three of us (or four is it was a four hole bucket). Would each assign a number to ourselves (1,2,3). Then we'd each take turns throwing the ball into the basket. The first person who's assigned number came up 10 times would "win" that round.

At that age, we never believed in random. It was all skill. We could telepathically make the ball that someone else had thrown come out the hole of our choice ... imagination was the key.

According to wikipedia, it's called a Funnel Ball. I think we used to call it bucket ball.
