    I get kinda bummed when I see he has a celebrity on but when he has a truck driver or garbage man on I feel like I can’t listen to it fast enough. I skipped a meeting at work because I was listening to the New York garbage man episode. They’re just way more entertaining and don’t act like they have a reputation to uphold or like they’re something they’re not.

    My uncle runs a carnival and when i was 18 i went out to work it with him. He never told me its a scam. He just had me lure people in and let them play. One time, this grandfather rolled up with his like....5 year old grandson. This little boy was BURNED all over his face. Hands me a $20 to let the kid go a few rounds on that game where you have a bunch of tiny glass cups that are wet and you toss a little ping pong ball in. They always bounce out. He runs through that $20 fast. The kid wanted the cool scooter hanging up. 20 bucks is gone and he hands me another 20. I told him....."You know he wont ever win." and the grandfather said "I know. i just love seeing him have fun." in that moment i decided.....this boy is getting this scooter. So on the last shot.....the little boy jumped up and turned around as if "awww man! almost made it!" and i leaned in and grabbed the ball and put it in the glass. In order to unlock and get him the scooter i had to call my uncle to come unlock it. My uncle was like "Mannnnn, aint no one won that game in 20 years" he knew i pulled a fast one. But it was in front of everyone so he didnt challenge it and i gave the scooter to the boy. The grandfather....who seen me do that for his grandson, shook my hand and said thank you and left. Week later i got outa there. Never returned. Carnival should be about joy and OPEN challenges not scams. Tell them how impossible a game is. Or design a new game that is extremely hard and make it clear. People will still play for the challenge.

    I actually won a huge Spuds McKenzie stuffed animal when I was a kid at the basket/softball toss. The carnie did that exact thing where he showed me how it was done and then had me throw the second ball and it did stick. Then when I had to do two on my own, when I tossed the ball (back/underhand with the spin), it hit the lip and bumped up into the air and then fell back in to the basket, came back up almost to the lip and then settled back into the basket. The look on the carnie's face was of pure surprise. The second ball went in without much of an issue. The carnie just stood there slackjawed. My parents looked the same. I--an eight year old kid who had just won a massive stuffed beer mascot bigger than I was==was overjoyed and thought I was just naturally gifted. Don't think I ever won another one of those games.

    @@GodWeenSatan Wrong. Sorry to burst your bubble. There are only a few that are un-winnable. Bank-a-ball hands out 20 to 30 % stock. Which is average across the midway. One ball is harder, but you HAVE to listen to the game operator, they Will give you the actual way to win. They are banking on the "I'm a Man, I don't follow directions" not paying attention. I worked for a traveling carnival for years. I have seen ten bicycles given out as prizes for the shoot out the star game in one weekend. My game was pool tables. We had to keep the tables level and clean. Because it makes the game harder to win! Another game my boss had was the long range. Basket ball free throw game. In Houston, Tx. My buddy had a 60 year old grandmother toss 18 straight. She then stayed around to give all the young boys crap for not being as good as she was!! Honestly, we had to worry more about the rowdy customers robbing us for the money in our aprons, then the paying customers had to worry about games being rigged!

    I used to do the shoot the star game. The trick to that would not be to lay on the trigger if the pellet gun, but to flick the trigger to get one or two shots off at a time. You aim for the outside corners of the star and basically carve out the star from around it. The carnies used to turn the card backwards and angled when they saw me each year, because they knew I’d win it and others would see how I did it to win. Every year I’d have blood blisters on the index, middle and ring fingers from that game, and a dozen plus giant stuffed animals for my little sister.

    Back in 1965 my dad was a pro pitcher silently mentored by Mickey Mantle. He could through a fastball in high school 98.9 miles an hour. We lived in Upstate NY in a tiny, not even a dot on the map kind of place. We were at a carnival in our town, and he stepped up to the milk jugs. The locals gathered around to see Dickie pitch. The carny knew nothing, they were all Gibs Town folk. He stepped back, dropped his shoulders, eyes closed, looked up and POW! He not only knocked the crap out of them, he shattered the top one! Everyone cheered their hometown boy! He was wanted by 5 major teams and scouted for more. I swear at 5 to me he glowed, my hero...he went for his physical and they found he had melanoma cancer. In 65 you just went home and died. My hero was gone. After The Mick himself came to the funeral with a lot of other players. They played a benefit game for my mom on our softball field. I remember sitting in Mick's lap...he smelled of cigarette's and bourbon, and the Mick had tears streaming down his face... I miss Dickie still.

    At the county fair in 2001 I wanted this electric razor scooter. The game was to bounce a ball off a wall and have it land in a basket on the ground.... Just like the one the showed here. I tried 10 times and never got close. I said "this is a scam isn't it" and the guy says no, bro, let me show you and walked out and did it. $2 later, I was riding off on my new electric scooter. I just needed to see the "trick" and then I could emulate it. That scooter sucked though, I crashed it and broke my whackin' hand.

    When I was like 11-12 yrs old my family went to 6 Flags Magic Mountain for the day. They, like most amusement parks, have a section with carnival style games. I begged and begged for a couple bucks to play because a really cool stuffed dragon caught my eye and I really wanted it. My mean ass step mom told me I didn't stand a chance and to stop asking. My dad told her to shut up and handed me a few dollars and said "good luck." I took the money and ran over to the games. I handed the man behind the counter the money and he handed me a softball. I can't remember the name of the game but the goal was to toss the softball into an old fashioned milk container. Those really big ones that are like 3 feet tall. Anywho, I eye'd my target, lined up my shit, and gave a smooth underhand toss. To my absolute shock, I freaking nailed it! Like a perfect swish. The ball didn't even touch the rim. Even the dude behind the counter was surprised. He said "good shootin' kid.. pick your prize." I pointed up and said "that big orange dragon, please." It didn't look that big when it was hanging up on the ceiling, but when the guy handed it to me, I was damn near staring that dragon in the eye. This thing was HUGE. And that's coming from a guy who's never been the 2nd tallest kid throughout my entire public school career. I had to tie the dragons hands together so I could piggy back it the rest of the day. Still totally worth it

I wasn't responsible for it, but I watched another manager do it. Our balloon pop game had dulled pegs behind most of the balloons. When we demonstrated the game to the guests, we would always aim center blue. Sharp peg. My dumbass hit it dead on and it still didn't pop one time. Little girl picked up my extra bag and threw it and popped one right after too. 🤦‍♂

I worked the basketball stand and he did the ballon stand. The balloons had tags under them (like small, medium, large) but he would give players a prize based on how many times they played and how much money they spent. He was a super cool guy and a master salesman of untapped potential imo.
