THE CLAAAAAW

So, tonight i went on a date to red robin (thats not what this story is about). So anyways whenever I go to Red Robin I am reminded of this time when my whole family went to Red Robin, and my sister, Kelsey, is reaaaaallly good at those claw games,  you know, the one where you put a doller in and try and win a stuffed toy or something, so anyways while my family was at Red Robin, Kelsey actually won on of these games! I was in utter shock, I had never seen anyone win before! And then, to my dismay, my little sister Summer tried, and won as well!!!!!!! So i related this story to my date, and the whole time we were sitting at dinner, I was thinking about how badly I wanted to try "the claw", I even mentioned midway through our dinner that I wanted to go and try right then, but he kindly reminded me that we were still eating (bahaha SO ME). SO anyway, after we got done we decided to take a wack at it, I went first....NOTHIN....then he went NOTHIN, so finally I had 1 quarter left, and grudgingly I made him give me one of his quarters, and i went in for one last try...I aimed in on my little mouse stuffed toy, dropped the claw on it, and "HOLLY CRAP I GOT IT, AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THERE'S ANOTHER TOY WITH IT!!!!!!!" the fans went wild, I was ecstatic...not only did i win one toy, but i won TWO TOYS!!!!!!!!! I ended up giving the stuffed mouse/bear to my date, and kept the mickey mouse basketball for myself....I kind of wish we would have gotten a picture with our prizes in front of the machine...but this pic should capture my excitement well enough:)

*Now that I think of it, w/a face like this, the store owner probably thought I was handicapped and rigged the game.....tough luck!
