They even made a video game about you where you had to deliver newspapers while avoiding being attacked by unleashed dogs. Remember Paperboy? :)

- loeg 8y agoWay too early for me :-).
- cgriswald 8y agoThat came out in 1985...
- dpkonofa 8y agoYeah, so? The point still stands. In any case, the most widely played version was the NES version which was released in 1989. That's close enough to the 90's to not make a marked difference in the point.
- cgriswald 8y agoYeah. So, if this happened in the 90's, it can't have inspired the video game. If it also happened earlier, it could have inspired the video game, but it is irrelevant that a later version was more widely played...
- loeg 8y agoIn case it isn't clear: This was absolutely a problem for cyclists before the 90s, too.
