Is that a radio? with a puzzled look on the old guy\'s face.
 

Caesars IN Friday late afternoon, they start a new $4-8 game and a nice old man that I had never seen in the room before sits on my left. I am an amiable guy and always speak to the players near me so we exchange hellos and chat a little.

I am now a member of the headphone club and always have my MP3 hanging around my neck. He asks what I am listening to and I reply "The Police". He gets a really puzzled look on his face and asks if my MP3 player is a radio. I say "No it is an MP3 player and I have a lot of different music loaded on it but the music I like best is from the 70's and 80s." He asks,"Is The Police the name of a group?" Everybody at my end of the table is grinning when I answer. He couldn't figure out how/why I was listening to a police radio calls at the poker table.

He turned to be a really nice old man and a pretty good player.

The Police was new 20 years ago? You're either too young to remember, or older than you think you are. Be careful makin' fun of the geezers. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I utilize this same ruse on the young players as well. Nothing like appearing to be a cleuless old geezer to help you get the cash.

that's a horrible summary. the whole funny part was that old balls thought OP was listening to a police radio at the poker table.

No the funny part was that OP thought Old Guy didn't know what the OP was doing.
