While doing my last minute Christmas shopping at Wally World, I sent my kids over to the arcade will I went thru the check out line. When I went to get the kids I glanced into one of those claw / crane games where you move a joystick which controls a claw and you try and pick up things that are all piled inside. Back in the corner I noticed an Ike dollar inside a plastic case. I could not make out the date, but thought it was pretty interesting that someone had put that in there as a prize. I can never even pick up a stuffed animal in those stupid games, so I did not even try to pick up the coin.

Oh my, I would have been all over that!

I used to love those claw games, but to play for an Eisenhower dollar instead of some cheezy toy? Classic!

Now I have to go check out all of the area Wal Marts!
