As a lad spending summers Down The Shore, we used to combine Monopoly games so that every space could have a hotel. Having the cat jump on the card table and upset the board if you were losing was also a legitimate tactic. :D
this finally prompted me to look up Marvin Gardens. The property in Monopoly is based on Marven Gardens in Margate City NJ. The name is a portmanteau of MARgate City and VENtnor City ‘cuz it’s on the border of both. It’s now in Registers of Histoic Places of NJ and the US

He rolls doubles a lot. He could be back in two more rolls.

If my buddy catches him again at the opposite corner, he’ll send him right back here.

Well, heck, in that game, you never find out what you’re arrested for anyway.

Has anyone ever “finished” a game of Monopoly? I mean without the game board being thrown and game pieces and money scattered all over the floor?

Get out of jail free. He doesn’t have to pay $50.00. He rolled three doubles to get in to jail.
