RTV6 - Henry Gribbohm claims he lost his life savings playing a carnival game - News Story

This guy tried to win an Xbox 360 by playing a carnival game. He ended up losing a total of $2,600 trying to win the Xbox. He did walk away with a stuffed banana with dreadlocks though, but no Xbox. He does plan to file a lawsuit though because he is pretty sure...now...that the game is rigged.

I will trade him my Kinect for that banana.

I could at least pack that thing full of tannerite and blow it up. My Kinect hasn't been used since the month I bought it.

Remember folks, idiots like this can breed and vote. So, the next time anyone wonders what's wrong with this country just look for the dumb **** walking down the street wearing a wife beater and carrying a stuffed banana with dreadlocks. THAT is what's wrong with this country.

His keen awareness explains why his life savings was $2,600.

Good point. Do you know how many cases of Natty Light he had to pass up during the week to save up that kind of money?

 

[Coltsfan33]

LOL! If he really wanted an Xbox that bad i would have sold him mine for a quarter of that!

 

[PX4me]

Wow. Just wow. The idiocy never ceases to amaze.

If he had $2600 to blow, why not just go buy the damn thing? That banana must really be something special.

 

[Trigger Time]

I think there's a member here with a Banana Hamock he might loan him .....

 

[hoosierdoc]

And he just told the world he keeps $2000 cash I'm his house. Dunce.

I would be too ashamed to tell everyone I was outsmarted by a carnie. Also would have loved to hear the negotiation that led to him getting Mr Reggae Banana.

A fool and his money are soon parted

 

[! twitty]

Great! Now the price of carnival games will go up too!

 

[BogWalker]

Can we sterilize him?

 

[parsimonious]

LOL.
Henry Gribbohm claims he lost his life savings, $2600.

He went back the next day to complain, and the man running the game gave him back $600.
He split with the banana and the cash, and filed a report with police.


Oh Henry, dear, dear Henry.


I must take care never to meet a Mr. Gribbohm.

That $2600 stuffed Marley Banana is sweeeeet!!

On a personal note I would also like to add that I neither confirm nor deny any monetary loss over playing for some cheap carnival trinket in my youth.

I really believe the banana got the worst of the deal.
It did not have a choice.
Every one was turning and laughing at what happen to the banana and saying look at who is carrying that poor banana.
