Today is Friday the 13th, a date now indelibly linked with Jason Voorhees since the very first Friday the 13th movie hit the silver screen in 1980. Since then, there have been 9 sequels, a spinoff with Freddy vs Jason, a remake, and a videogame. Now The Op (formerly Usaopoly) is poised to introduce the first licensed Friday the 13th board game.
