      as much fun as we had, it still leaves me deflated that they're shutting shit down

      i love the slight cant to the angle. it is really nice because it makes the photo more jarring and depressing.

      RIP Win Big! Big! Prizes for the Family!! Sadly this stand was demolished on June 18, 2010, though the balloon dart man had been booted out last year. He drives a cab now.. I'm one of the 30-some people who favorited this photo. I hope you don't mind that I put in my blog post....
