Rubbing Shoulder Magic

[MrRobert]

I was playing at the Tropicana in Atlantic City and having awful luck. I was playing a 10 coin 50 cent machine and an elderly lady was playing a 5 coin 50 cent machine and the machine went off. Joker Poker and she hit 5 of a kind and told me that was her second one today. I told her I wasn't hitting anything on my Jacks or Better machine and asked if I could rub her shoulder and I did. Within 5 minutes I was dealt a royal flush for 5,000. She had left right after she was paid her Jackpot but I will never forget her.

Great! One just never knows. I can’t compete with that one. The closest I can come was about 20 years ago. An elderly lady walked away from her machine to go home I guess. It was several machines from mine. I had lost 60 bucks and was taking a lunch break. I noticed she had been dealt junk on JOB with a quarter bet and just walked away. I completed the hand and a one quarter Royal appeared on the redraw. I looked for her but couldn’t find her so I just kept the 62.50. My next two trips I looked around in case the same lady who was there but she wasn’t. I would have gladly given her the money.

You're a good egg. $62 buys four dozen nowadays.

Let's not exaggerate. Eggs have gone up, but not that much. I was in Sam's club a few days ago and eggs were $5.98 for 2 dozen. Of course, you could only buy 1 package.

We paid 4.89 for Egg-land’s Best today. Crazy the local grocery store brand was a dollar more. My brother paid 7 bucks for Organics. Yikes. I read eggs are being smuggled in from Mexico. Three dollars and change for a tray of 30.

Nature abhors a vacuum. Egg smuggling entrepreneurs providing supply to meet demand while profiting. Of course inspection protocols are "no mas."

What an eggciting turn this thread has taken.

Who the hell attempts to obtain a stranger’s shoulder rub in the first place? This story is a bit much.

I was going say this sounds like something Bill Cosby might do, but then I thought better.

Now I want some Jell-o.

I guess the yolk's on you.
