Playing Monopoly Las Vegas in Palm Springs

People playing Monopoly Las Vegas in Palm Springs
Monopoly Las Vegas made its way to the back of the vendor booths at the Thursday night street fare in Palm Springs recently.

Playing that game looks as good as going to the street fair itself. Okay, some people would rather watch paint dry. In order to play Monopoly you've got to love Monopoly. 

Were you aware there are also Monopoly games based on New York City, Boston and Brooklyn? Why not Palm Springs? Surely Hasbro can conjure up something after the execs of the company see this image taken in Palm Springs.

Just in case if you didn't know the original Monopoly game is based on Atlantic City. Hurricane Sandy blew the huge replica of the Atlantic City Monopoly board out to sea.

As a kid I didn't want Boardwalk and Park Place; I wanted Baltic Avenue and, yeah, Mediterranean Avenue. Hmm, living in the Demuth Park neighborhood, I might just have it in the Palm Springs Monopoly: Sunny Dunes, Avenida Evelita, El Placer, or Mesquite. Homes are cheap and the houses, well..just aren't the same as those in Las Palmas or Movie Colony.
