The guy running it comes up to me and had a cool moment though. He was like "Hey...how many times you wanna play tonight? I'll just let you." I appreciated that, but I told him I'm happy to pay my part and play by the rules. I throw down another five dollars, effectively agreeing to the rules as they exist...including the rule we haven't talked about yet: ONE PRIZE PER PERSON PER DAY that's clearly up at that game still.

I try it a third time and stand it the third time. Finally. The tepid applause returns while the game-runners repeat the word WINNER a bunch. Stamps and Robert go wild.

They ask me what prize I want. I was originally going to get my brother's kids a different prize each, but after seeing the bear my brother didn't know he could fit any of them into his car. We agree that I'll get the kids a giant snake as a group prize -- that's his best chance to fit something in a car trunk, as huge as it is.

The woman running the game was mad I picked the snake. Remember what I said about short people running these games? Yeah, she couldn't get the snake down by herself. She went to get her step-ladder to grab the snake, and she still couldn't get it down. She walks away for a bit and gets a bigger ladder to finally get it down. Robert dubbed the second ladder as "the winner's ladder."

Carrying this snake back was a bitch. Stamps and I wore it on our shoulders back to my vehicle, plus I had it wrapped around my neck like a scarf in our hot weather. I was pretty hot and tired when we finished carrying this.

Security came up to me as I was walking out and said "Hey, where's my prize?" I turned my head as much as my new snake let me and didn't miss a beat: "Where's my sponsorship?"
