Amusement Park / Fair Games are Not Fair at All !

I hate the fair i remember when i was lil it WAS enjoyable ! My State Fair (of Texas) gets more and more expensive each and every year. How about yours ? Worse yet , I stopped going coz all the games are fixed . If you win it was because it was an accident . The football toss through the tire game is fixed . The ball is underinflated and the tire is too narrow . Next time i go ima take an air pump . The basketballs are lopsided . When you shoot the ball to the hoop it wobbles side to side , throwing your shot off . Plus the hoops are narrower. They put oil or grease on the plates so when you play the coin toss , the coins slip off and never stay on the plate . I can go on and on , but the most horrible game is the crane game . The stuffed animals are packed in soo tight , you wonder how someone manages to pull a prize out . Even when the crane manages to get a prize , upon delivery the crane is shaken so violently . The prize ends up falling back into the pile, half the time . I know these are games of skill , but the government needs to regulate these games coz they are not honest ! Raz

How it changed my life:

I gave up the fair and carnivals coz they are dishonest . These places are supposed to make us happy , but they make me disheartened . :( Raz

Date: 1/29/2002 7:48:00 AM  From Authorid: 24732    Yep, the games are rigged. Have you ever seen that episode of the Simpsons where Homer and Bart join the carnival? It's really funny LOL!  
Date: 1/29/2002 8:58:00 AM  From Authorid: 38278    I've been saying that they were rigged for years.  
Date: 1/31/2002 2:27:00 PM  From Authorid: 48939    Personally, if there's a prize I want, I buy it off the guy. Cheaper than trying to win it!  
Date: 1/31/2002 4:02:00 PM  From Authorid: 17290    i didnt really read this..but i think i know what you are talking about..i read an article about how they "rig" them so they "steal" your money, like ballon darts....they make them w/a little less air..so they dont pop....and the knock them donw, or ring toss game, how, its impossible...personly i hate those games, p.s. also, i dont like to go on rides any more...cause they creak, (local "mini" fun days) for small places, and like disney, etc...they have tons of acidents all the time, but dont report them...thats why i hate most rides....taht are up in the ground..dosent mean the ground ones dotn have accidnets...anyway..later, love,  
Date: 2/2/2002 6:27:00 PM  From Authorid: 27270    Agh! That darned "pop the balloon w/ the darts" game gets me so so so aggrevated! I can't even win at that, and how do they fix that one? Am I just that lousy of a shot?  
Date: 3/2/2002 7:50:00 AM  From Authorid: 49957    Ok, comming from someone that worked in an amusement park, for the games department, I can honistly say games of skill at amusement parks by law can not be fixed for you not to win, if so you can call your local authority and report them....also some rules and other numbers to call is located at this web sight http://www.state.nj.us/lps/ca/brief/games.htm
