jipped by a carnie

so belding has a yearly weekend carnival on labor day. kara, isaac, and i went with our friends mike and angie, and matt and amy. i saw the game where you throw a ball at three cans and win a stuffed animal; had to play. i got jipped. first jip, it was $5 for three throws, i could have bought ten stuffed animals for that price, but that is not the point, the point is to defeat the game.

i paid, and i threw the ball. whop, i got only the top can. second throw. whoosh. i got nothin but the back tarp. third throw, crash! i knocked them all down! as i am rejoicing the lady reminds me that all three cans MUST fall backwards. apparently i did not know about this condition. one can fell forward.

jipped by a carnie.
