First Comes Monopoly...




I first started dating my wife in the early nineties. This story is from the very beginning of our relationship--only three months in!  Back then, I knew virtually zero about board games. I only knew of the standards of the time: Risk, Trivial Pursuit, oh, and Monopoly. I would win Monopoly games by attrition. As a rule, I would never trade a property. I would rather have played a ten-hour game then let someone have a railroad.
