“This
is the definitive history
of foosball in the United
States.I was very impressed
by the insight and intelligence
with which it was constructed.
I lived and breathed foosball
from 1971 to 1978, but
there were many gaps in
my knowledge beyond Texas-style
foosball. This history
provided me, for the first
time, a complete picture.
Make this video a part
of your permanent collection-you'll
be glad you did.”

“Ismert draws on
more than three years
of countless personal
interviews with many of
the greatest names and
players of the sport,
both past and present.
Collectively these interviews
provide exceptional insider
perspective on key figures
and personalities, spectacular
matches and tournaments,
the “glory days”
and history of the game,
and on how the sport evolved
to be where it is today.
More
than the mere history
of what to most is just
a novelty sport, these
two revealing stories
in particular drive the
introspective side of
the film to the point
where you come to understand
these players… in
a way not explored in
any other sports documentary
made to date.
In
all, this film is a “foos”
fanatic’s dream
but also for most anyone,
it serves as an intriguing
look at a cross section
of Americana.”

“Last
night I watched “Foos”
again and enjoyed it even
more the second time!
You have done a fabulous
job of capturing the essence
of the “foos”
experience. You have also
done a monumental job
of telling the history
of the pro tour experience
in the U.S.”

“In
one word… WOW! You
did a marvelous job Robert,

job, excellent video/graphics
production.”

"It
gives a very clear picture
of the foosers without
the dullness of political
correctness or the need
to gloss over or enhance
the image of foosball
or its players. I’ve
watched the film three
times now and find it
more perfect each time."
