Man Doesn’t Pass Go, and Heads Directly to Jail at Monopoly Tournament

In my household, a game of Monopoly always ends with someone yelling at the banker, and flipping the table over. So it's no surprise that someone ended up getting arrested and sent to jail at a Monopoly tournament. According to the Huffington Post, a Missouri man started a brawl at the Ozark Mountain Monopoly Tournament. Sixty-nine-year-old John Litton, started the brawl after tournament organizers refused to allow Litton to compete after he "engaged in unsportsmanlike conduct" at last years event.

It's not known exactly what happened at last years tournament, but he was escorted from the event and refunded his money. This year, they contacted Litton before the event and asked him to "sit this year out." He then showed up, and was asked to leave. That's when he started attacking other attendees, even punching a lady who he accused of cheating last year.

Litton was arrested and taken "directly to jail," and charged with three counts of third-degree assault, disturbing the peace and trespassing.
