8:00 a.m. Sunday Morning

Two girls waiting outside the St. James Theatre on West 44 Street, waiting to get tickets to see SOMETHING ROTTEN!  Only 4 more hours to go until the box office opens.  

The purpose of the board game MONOPOLY is to force the player into bankruptcy, the perfect game to play while waiting to see a play on Broadway whose tickets can cost as much as $147.00 each.  

They must have taken the "railway" to get there and "rented" the "property" they're sitting on, otherwise they would have had to "Go directly to jail." But, on the other hand, they might have been lucky and got "free parking" so they could sit outside the theatre for another 4 hrs. Now if one of them gets "4 houses" she can buy a "hotel" and they can stay the night!! Or just buy the old, historic theatre!

Girls, a word of warning: "Keep that 'Get out of jail free card' in your pocket, just in case the police arrive and give you any trouble!"

When was the last time you played the board game MONOPOLY?
