Happy Birthday to Monopoly!

We've all played it and most of us have cursed it. Monopoly! The classic game turns 78 this week, shortly after replacing the iconic Iron piece with a cat.

I have to say that I usually picked the iron as my piece. I also have to confess that I never got Boardwalk or Park Place. I always went for Ventner Ave. I saw it in a Tony Randall movie once and I liked the name!

What is your favorite Monopoly memory and piece?
