BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 And has the nerve to file a complaint. The operator gave him $600 back for no reason.

Drew a Penalty Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 My theater tech teacher told me about his time working at a carnival once. Said that when the person running it gives a demonstration, they leave the ball that they use to demonstrate inside the bucket/bin so that any other ball that goes in will bounce off of that ball and out.

There's no way even that idiot didn't realize another ball was in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 The guy running the game uses his own ball, its older and deader with less "life". The balls he gives out are new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonybologna Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 These are definitely rigged, there's no way you can be amazing at it for "practice" and then fuck up every time when you're playing for the prize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
