In the episode "Opie and the Carnival",Opie,Andy,and Goober all take turns

It is time for our annual visit to the Northern Wisconsin State Fair and the
big carnival. I am taking my wife tomorrow and I have a big day planned. I
am hoping to win her a cupie doll, a ceramic pelican or a percolator at the
shooting gallery. I hope to win myself a razor and one of those
I was watching 'Opie and the Carnival' (4/26/1965) on DVD yesterday, and the
scene where Andy "cleans house" at the crooked shooting gallery elicited a
