Is it only me? Somehow every time I go I wind up getting pi$$ed off as a result of some carny's actions, or the whole scam that they are operting under. I played a game last night where you shoot a dart, if it lands inside the star you win your choice of the sports jerseys that they have up there. So after letting my Girlfriend have a few tries and taking a few myself I wound up winning. With no Flames jerseys up for grabs I pick a team Canada jersey. A fake team canada jersey. The whole selection of hockey jerseys were Knock-offs. These bunch of theiving p&icks are pulling in boatloads of cash and handing out what I can only assume is Illegal merchandise.
Can anyone comment on whether it is even legal to give out Knock off jerseys? It is also no wonder why they don't have any Flames jerseys there because a larger majority would be able to spot them.
So long story short I spend 30 or 40 bucks playing this game, I won a jersey, then some how felt dirty walking around with what I know to be a Knock off Team Canada Jersey in my Bag.

I feel bad for you if you ever go to Vegas, and don't leave a winner.
