We’ve all seen the special edition monopoly boards. The fun ones like Star Wars or The Simpsons. They even have Michigan Monopoly. But now, for the first time since it’s inception in 1935, the original Monopoly board is getting a makeover. They are going to update all the landmarks around the board with landmarks from the Here and Now.
I have no idea why this got me all excited. I normally don’t play games, although I have a closet full. But now I want to scoop this up and have people over for a party. Maybe it’s because I can be involved in the decision making process. From now until May 12, fans can vote on monopoly.com for their favorite landmarks from 22 cities — including New York’s Times Square, Chicago’s Wrigley Field, Honolulu’s Waikiki Beach, Beverly Hills’ Rodeo Drive and San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge.
Maybe it’s just the thought of Wrigley Field being on the board. Whatever it is, I’m voting and I’m buying it as soon as it’s available and I’m having a party. Any takers?
