The Idea

Imagine if a huge MONOPOLY game is being played in a stadium like a football game. You print a huge board and put it on a football field. Then people buy $1500 in the contest. The people who are not playing watch in the audience rows. The players use styrofoam dice to roll and get the number of spaces you walk on the board. This is a long game to watch, but if the styrofoam dice aren't enough, how about smaller-sized metal dice that an olympian could throw? During breaks, there is what you call a kind of rugby that improves the player's money by 500 points per score. Then they use the money they cashed in to buy properties, houses and hotels, and get rents (as well as pay taxes). Whoever is the richest player in the game wins the same amount of real money they have in the game. I hope Charles B. Darrow loves his game like this!

I thought of this idea when I was...

This could be neat but I don't know how many people would pay to watch a human size version of monopoly nor do I know how many sponsors you would be able to get.
But I do agree that it sounds pretty neat.
