Wow, Hasbro was remarkably petty: &gt; Meanwhile, Parker Brothers filed for, and won, a court order to &quot;deliver up for destruction&quot; 37,000 copies of the board game from Prof. Anspach&#x27;s warehouse. Parker Brothers, he says, buried the games near a rural Minnesota landfill. &quot;It was depressing,&quot; says Prof. Anspach.<p>&gt;The spokeswoman for Hasbro said that these events were many years ago, and that she can&#x27;t verify the games&#x27; fate. &quot;If Parker Brothers did indeed destroy the games, it was pursuant to the court&#x27;s explicit order,&quot; she said in an email response.<p>After they asked for and received permission to destroy his inventory, they try to push the blame for their actions back on the court. Classy.
