Constructing and playing a physical game of Salmon P. Chess is indeed possible, but would probably kill a lot of time, money, and sanity. Nevertheless, it sounds like the kind of thing I would do over a slow and uneventful summer. ('Hey, look at this mind-bogglingly huge chess variant! I think I'll go build a set so I'll actually have something to do for the next few months.')
Alternatively, I can spend my summer coding this game, although I have no idea how one would store the board information. I'll have to analyze this game a bit more...it seems pretty interesting.
