i figured this was a high stakes limit game, so here goes....
New York City Union Square Taiwanese Festival. I'm in the hunt to lay a bad beat on these mothers. i find a guy spreading a "ring" game; we all know it....$1 gets you 5 rings, you throw them towards a collection of bottles. if you throw a ring over a drink, you win it.
first ring, BAM. i immediately pump my fist. the guy is like "WHOA"
second ring, BAM. he's all "call security! WHOA!"
third ring, i throw it aggressively, BAM. he's all "WHAT"
i missed the fourth ring.
fifth ring, i threw it towards a bottle i already got and hit it, and he tells me i can't win 4 drinks because i already won that one.....WTF!!! FLOOR!!!!
in the end i took him for 4 drinks, easily costing each retail >$1 for 1/4 the price. it made my day.
