"Mayday Casino."

by austin-heath

My Mom took me to the casino to gamble with her money. Played video poker and roulette, and very well could have just lit $80 on fire. The casino was my Vietnam. We sit down and order sodas from a machine called "Fairies of the Forest". No intention or idea how to play it. Put in $20. Press a couple buttons. Won $140. I think the laws of physics break down under that ceiling. Like Alice in Wonderland on acid... or would it be more acid?
