Greatest. Claw Machine. Ever.

My earliest memory of fairgrounds was winning a wonky-eyed Garfield plush on the claw machine. But then I didn’t play The Big One.

Located in a Six Flags amusement park somewhere in Texas, The Big One is a claw machine with a difference: it actually has prizes you’d want. No crappy stuffed toys here, but whole PlayStation 3 Slims, worth $300 a pop. It’s a little pricier than most claw machines, charging $3 for every attempt, but jeez, what a prize. And imagine stocking this damn thing if you were the owner.

(Cue joke about PS3 only being worth $3, then cue me crushing joke by revealing there were also Wii and Xbox 360 claw games at the same venue.)
