Re: Funniest thing ever in a poker room
Not strictly poker, but it did happen in a poker room...
Back in 1992 when the casinos in St. Louis first opened, riverboats were actually required to be on the water so they converted the old entertainment boat the Admiral into a casino. The ship was barely seaworthy so they permanently moored it at the dock while all the other casinos had to actually take a trip each session.
I was playing 1-4 stud (sigh…) and some older lady asked the dealer, “Sir, does this ship ever sail?” His reply, “Lady, if this ship ever moves we’re all in a lot of trouble!”
Forward about a year during the floods of 1993… When the water level got too high all but one of the mooring cables snapped and the thing did a 180 and started floating down the river! Now that’s funny!
