I've a feeling these things still exist, but I never see them:

I got this game when I was a kid in the 60s and I still have it.

Hey Pa! There's A Goat On The Roof.

Hey Pa! There's a Goat on the Roof was a children's board game issued by Parker Brothers in 1966.

The game revolves around a game board featuring plastic farm-related items sticking out of it. Players move goat-shaped pieces around the board attempting to complete tasks that reward them with tin can pieces. The first player to move their goat onto the roof of the barn ends the game, and at that time whatever player has the most cans wins. Movement is determined by an included spinner.

Here is a video about how to play the game.

Singers on street corners belting it out in kick ass harmonies. It's regional I know but the 70's in Philly had some killer action going around a burning garbage can ( or sometimes a tire :/ man that stunk... in the alleys behind the brownstones ) I'd be surprised if it doesn't still happen somewhere, but not out here on the left coast that I've ever seen.
