Man Loses Life Savings On Carnival Game, Wins Giant Stuffed Banana With Dreadlocks

I hope you have all had your coffee this morning, because here comes one of the most amazing sentences in the history of the English language:

Henry Gribbohm says he lost his life savings, $2,600, on a carnival game and all he has to show for it is a stuffed banana with dreadlocks. [WBZ-TV]

Say it again.

Henry Gribbohm says he lost his life savings, $2,600, on a carnival game and all he has to show for it is a stuffed banana with dreadlocks.

AGAIN.

Henry Gribbohm says he lost his life savings, $2,600, on a carnival game and all he has to show for it is a stuffed banana with dreadlocks.

I know this is incredibly sad, especially when you see him pushing the stroller around in the video clip, but there’s a big part of me that wants to cut this story open and live inside it forever. With that banana.
