Anyone who watches Aqua Teen Hungar Force is probably familar with the episode where Frylock builds a supercomputer. In this episode they are giving some games to a caveman, and Meatwad suggests they give him Clamdigger. In explination, Meatwad says:
"Tyrone calls you up, you know in the game, and he says 'I can dig more clams than you stupid!' and you gotta say 'Nuh-uh boy!' and y'all gotta race down to the beach with your buckets and your shovels, and the object of the game... is to find parking."
I found out today that they did not make this up - Clamdigger is an actual game! Meatwad is slightly off in that you do eventually dig clams, but finding parking is part of the game.
Here is an article someone wrote about the game:

The funniest part though is Tyrone's comments while you play the game. They range from the relatively mundane:
YOU CANT BEAT MY CLAMMING SKILL IDIOT
HAHA I BEAT YOU HERE! DONT EVEN TRY LOSER
To the more harsh:
I KNOW YOU CRY YOURSELF TO SLEEP
I HOPE YOU FALL OVER AND CANT GET BACK UP
DROWN IN QUICKSAND
YOUR BROTHER IS IN JAIL HAHAHA
CRASH AND DIE
YOUR FRIENDS HATE YOU
I HOPE IT HURTS WHEN YOU BREATHE
To the :odd::
CLOWNS CHASE YOU AT NIGHT AND WANT TO TAKE YOUR FEET
To the quotes that were too harsh to make into the actual game (but were discovered by hacking the game):
SOME CHILDREN DIE IN THEIR BEDS
PARENTS KEEP THE BEST SWEETS IN THE MEDICINE CUPBOARD
SELF HARM IS NOT A DIRTY PHRASE
DO YOU FEEL DIRTY? SCRAPE IT OFF
YOU FAIL AT EVERYTHING YOU DO. QUIT AT LIFE
Because of these quotes, the game was recalled a month after being put on the shelves.
I was laughing when I found this out because I had assumed that the game Meatwad was describing was totally made up. It just sounded so asinine. But it really is a game!
