## The story

The Snowstorm looked like the future. In practice, it showed fuzzy gray snowstorms unless you stood by a window, raised the antenna and held perfectly still. Dads brought it to ballgames and squinted at the tiny screen while the real game happened right in front of them. It ate four batteries per inning.

## Fun fact

Holding it upside down did not improve the picture, but everyone tried it at least once anyway.
