Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Collect €200...

Grady and I went head to head the other night as we busted out our new Dresden Monopoly game. It was a fun two hours, although I unfortunately had to finally throw my hands up in defeat! Then I took this picture of the end state of affairs...it was pretty sad. We had started by just dealing out all the properties so that the game would go faster and by the time we called it quits Grady had pretty much swept up all of them, not to mention having hotels on practically every single one...I was dishing out upwards of €700 each time I'd unluckily land on one-! When we called it quits I couldn't even mortgage my last two pitiful properties to add up to enough money to pay Grady what I owed him. But in my defense it didn't help that I somehow landed in jail at least four times out of my first six times around the board and missed out on all that "Passing Go" money. And then Grady landed on Free Parking twice, that lucky duck! All in all it was a nice evening spent together and great reassurance that Grady's the money manager in our family!
