AUSTRALIAN MONOPOLY RECORD

A total of 918 people sat down at 150 tables to play simultaneous games of Monopoly and break a Guinness World Record in Sydney, Australia, back on March 30. The record attempt was organized to raise money for a charity for children with brain cancer.
* The world record was set on March 30th. The game actually started 18 years ago. Monopoly just takes for-freakin’-ever to play.
* 918 people. A country that’s its own continent and they couldn’t round up an even thousand?
* Did you know: Australian-rules Monopoly includes tackling.
* Of course, there was a brawl over who gets to be the Top Hat.
* Just curious – is there a Guinness World Record for drinking Guinness?
