12 for me - enjoy your weekend off Zico

I played a Monopoly slot when I was in Vegas some 12 years ago.  It was one of those that had three identical machines next to each other.  Think it was Monopoly, Jackpot Station.  I wasn't having much luck on one, so moved seats to another.  Another fella sat in the one I vacated.  Within 10 minutes an alarm went off and he was soon visited by a manager and two security guards.  The manager shook him by the hand.  I didn't even look at what he won, but my wallet is still in counselling all these years later!  

14. Thanks Zico.
