A game called "Alien Attack" at the Our Lady of Mount Carmel Big Timecelebration in Roseto encouraged players to shoot darts at the head and heart of an image of a suited black man holding a health care bill and wearing a presidential seal.Irvin L. Good Jr., president of Hellertown-based Goodtime Amusements, said the game wasn’t meant to depict President Barack Obama, but he acknowledged he’s received two complaints since its April debut, including one complaint at the Big Time.
“Yes, a woman talked to me about it,” Good said today.“She said she was offended by it. I said if you are, you might want to be. But you’re interpreting it as being Obama. We’re not interpreting it as Obama. The name of the game is ‘Alien Leader.’ If you’re offended, that’s fine, we duly note that.”When it was suggested the health bill and presidential seal might lead players to believe the game did depict Obama, Good said, “You may be right there.”
