when you go to a boardwalk, carnival, or bazaar, there are these Games Of Chance. You have various games, placing your 50 cents or dollar down on a number or name, tossing a rubber ring onto a bottleneck, or tossing a quarter onto a plate.
I personally don't enjoy them, especially the "dart throwing at the balloon" game...
Do you enjoy these games? Which ones do you feel give the best chance of winning?

I like the "throw darts at hundreds of balloons" game. It's always fun to win 8 plastic back scratchers for hitting 2 balloons.

My favorite game of chance is Russian Roulette, and you win whatever is in the losers pockets!

They are mostly fixed and run by organized crime for money laundering purposes.

Ever see those people who drive little sports cars with 2 or 3 people already in them try to stuff this huge stuffed animal in the car with them. Tie it to the roof. You a cruising down the highway and a giant scooby doo is bouncing down the freeway because the idiot didn't tie it down properly.
*As for those wonderful prizes they have at the carnival*
Navin: For one dollar I'll guess you weight, your height, or your sex. The most exciting thing on the midway. Imagine the thrill of getting your weight guessed by a professional. You can blow up your cheeks, you can stick out your chest, but you're not going to fool the guesser. How about you sir? Step right up!
Carnival Rube: Hey honey, let's see how good this guy is. What'd I win?
Navin: Uh, anything in this general area right in here. Anything below the stereo and on this side of the bicentennial glasses. Anything between the ashtrays and the thimble. Anything in this three inches right in here in this area. That includes the Chiclets, but not the erasers.
Carnival Rube: No sir! Come on honey! He thought he had a rube.
Navin: Frosty, I'm no good at this.
Frosty: Aw come on Navin, you're doing fine.
Navin: I've already given away eight pencils, two hoola dolls and an ashtray and I've only taken in fifteen dollars.
Frosty: Navin, you have taken in fifteen dollars and given away fifty cents worth of crap, which gives us a net profit of fourteen dollars and fifty cents.
Navin: Ah! It's a profit deal! Takes the pressure off! Get your weight guessed right here! Only a buck! Actual live weight guessing! Take a chance and win some crap!
