Pass it Around

Well this was an unusual Monday morning at the dice table... usually dead and slow on Mondays, but we kept it pumping all but about 40 minutes during the 9am hour.

Still in the early morning hours, one guy made 5 dollars worth of 1 and 2-dollar bets in the prop box, and as I set them up it began... the box-man chimes in "one change" which was incorrect. I splashed the 2 dollar bet to prove it was 5 dollar action. He shook his head and blamed his [blood pressure] drugs. I replied snappily "Yea drugs, thats what it is" as I made the motion of taking a hit from a make believe joint followed by 3rd base dealers motion toward me to pass it. Box-man busts up laughing. I do pass the pretend joint on to him he takes his pretend hit and some how it ended up getting passed and hit off all around the 3rd base side then back to me, Then I passed it to the box-man who turned it down, saying "I haven't done that stuff in 25 years!" So the 2nd base dealer snatched it and took a double hit telling us all that was how to do it, then we all busted out laughing, players, dealers and all.

Then we laughed that surveillance was probably wondering what the heck was going on. And then the Box-man said "or they are wishing they were in on the pass-around!"
