Monopoly, evil portal to financial ruin, or just a coincidence?

Question

When I was in college a group of us got together to play Monopoly even though we had been warned against it, two weeks later one of my friends was riding the subway and she had her handbag stolen. Then some friends of my mother played and five years later one of them went bankrupt. And my uncle said that a guy at his work had played it and just after that he got sacked from his accountancy job!

Don't waste my time telling me that these are just coincidences because I know they're not!

What are your stories of financial loss after playing this evil game?

Answer 1

One night we were playing monopoly. We were all sitting around the board and playing by candlelight. Then my buddy landed on Community Chest and pulled out a card that said "Go To Jail". Just then the candle went out and the board flew across the room! Then 2 months later the transmission on my car went out and I had to pay like $1200 to get it fixed. Coincidence?  Yeah right!
