I'll pass on the whole Carnival thing. They give me the willies. I have this recurring amusement park dream that's sometimes good sometimes bad. Don't get me started on clowns!
LOL! I remember this one particular game at Knott's Berry Farm (Buena Park, CA) where you can get a toy if the guy does not guess your age within 2 years ... When he guessed that I was 13 years younger, I smiled, thanked him and snatched my toy
Hey, that's really neat, Chat! Yay for you!

Interesting tip Pam, thanks! I don't think I've ever won any of those carnival games. I had a hunch that most of them are rigged...lol.
I've heard that once in a while they let someone win, for marketing purposes. They want people to think they actually have a shot at it! .

Thanks for the tips Pammy. I have lost so much money growing up at those crqazy carnivals. They travel the country like gypsies. Is that how the song cam about Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves!!!! Well it suits them anyway....
I will pass these tips along to my son the next time the carnival is in town...
