Broke 0 #1 January 17, 2006 So tonight I wandered up to the vending machine to see what I would suppliment my crappy dinner with. I bought some little debbie nutty bars, and fig nutons. I then noticed that the Reese's Peanutbutter cups were jamed in the machine on a little plastic tab. I put in my first 50cents and there was only a little bit of movement. Then I popped in another 50 cents, and JACKPOT I got 6 packs of peanut butter cups. In this bout of man verses the vending machine I won. But there were aparently 4 losers before me.Divot your source for all things Hillbilly. Anvil Brother 84 SCR 14192 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmytavino 16 #4 January 18, 2006 Back in the Late 1960's one of my buddies on the JV football team at our High School.. managed to hit the vending machine Jackpot, frequently.... It was done in such a way that it paid off a few times a week for weeks at a time... Candy AND Money!!!!!!After practice was over and the building nearly deserted those who shall remain nameless, (but who are Legends !!!! of MY youth). would quietly go to the machines in the senior lounge, tip them forward onto their faces..... and then tip them one more time,, Onto the top...... and gravity would do the rest !!!!!!! No heavy Lifting required..... hahahaha.. all sorts of stuff,,, coins candy cookies etc. would rain outta the machine,, and the guys would scoop it up into their Brown Paper Bags,,, saved from lunchtime after lunchtime....hahahahaha Then the machine would be set back upright.... Never vandalized anything,, Never hurt the machine,,,Never broke into a thing,,, did NOT kill the "goose that layed the Golden Egg"...... and did NOT overdo the deed day after day...... But a couple of times a week for most of the season, someone would work their magic and the whole team would share in that little sugar boost which came from a "free" Baby Ruth or Milky Way or Three Musketeers Bar. (he who shall not be named kept the coins ).....on the way out to practice... When the season ended , so did the jackpots.... but the coins circulated among the lunchtime " card playing crowd " for the rest of the year..... Terrible behavior, I Know,, for a Catholic School Team.....But God must have a sense of humor... We ended the season 6 - 1 -1 .......league champs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Broke 0 #5 January 18, 2006 That's cheatingDivot your source for all things Hillbilly.
