Man Spends $2,600 on a Carnival Game – It Ends Well Thanks to Internet
This guy really, really, really wanted to win an Xbox at the carnival so after spending $300 – he went back home and brought his life savings of $2,300 to win the Xbox. I have not bought an Xbox in a while but I’m fairly certain it’s cheaper than $2,600.
You can read the full story here.
Thanks to the internet – his bacon*** is saved – CollegeHumor.com said if they got 26,000 likes, they would buy the giant rasta banana for $2,600. SCORE!
Internet comes to the rescue – follow up story here.
The moral of this story is do not go to the carnival unless it’s to eat fried butter.
Also, the internet is our friend and is like an ATM … er, I think that’s the other moral to this story.
This might be a few more but I’ll let sleeping dogs lay … 🙂

After spending retail price and not getting it – wouldn’t you just go to the store?
“Gribbohm says he is considering a lawsuit.”

When I saw this piece on the news my first thought was “This guy needs to enroll in Gambler’s Anonymous.” Clearly he has a problem.
