Since when is an x-box worth $2600? If he couldn't afford to lose the money, he couldn't afford to waste it on an x-box either.

What a moron.

So much fail. Claims the game was rigged.

It was a carnival game. No ******* ****, Sherlock. 5 year olds can figure that out.

$2600 is you're life savings at the age of 30? :eek:

The very first thing I thought of.

In fact, it's a tossup on whether the fact that he lost the money in a carnival game or the fact he considers $2,600 to be life savings is the more sad part of the story.

Wait, so the booth gave him back 600? Even though this guy is a moron, something is fishy about that.

They must not have any casinos nearby or he would have lost his money there. Who loses $300 at a carnival game, goes home and cleans out the piggy bank, then goes back to proceed to lose the rest. A compulsive gambler, that's who.

Well it was all fun and games up to the first $300, and then after that he need to restore his street cred.

I just want the carnival to use the defense that the man paid the stupid tax. Even if you did this just keep your mouth shut so people don't fully understand the depth of your stupidity.

And how many throws would he to attempt to spend $2600?

So, how do you beat this game? Throw it with a high loop so it doesn't hit the springy bottom of the bucket. Or try to get it to bounce from one side to another? Or try to hit the top and knock it down without hitting the bottom of the bucket?

For $2,600 you could try out those theories and get back to us.
