OUR EPIC TALE
35 Years of Chexx Bubble Hockey. Make the ICE Choice.
It all started a couple years after Team USA brought home the Olympic Hockey Gold Medal in the Miracle on Ice® at Lake Placid. Following that epic sports tale a small group of table hockey fanatics in Buffalo, NY designed and created the greatest competitive sports game of its time, CHEXX, the original USA vs USSR coin-operated bubble hockey (also known as dome hockey, table hockey, stick hockey or rod hockey). Since its 1982 introduction, few other games have transcended all of the changes over the decades following that "USA Miracle on ICE" and delivered more competition and fun among family and friends, adults and children. Check out the timeline on this page to see the evolution of this All-time arcade classic game in images dating back to 1982.
