I doubt this data is actually available, right?

Oh crap. You are right. Now I feel angry if this is fake data.

I also STRONGLY doubt over 200.000 Jenga sets are sold yearly in the US.

There's over 100m households so that's only like 1 per 500 per year

I could see 200,000 tbh. They're popular in craft breweries.

Lol. That’s so specific, but yeah they are.
