Manx Monopoly release reignites age old debate!

Wed, 26 Oct 2011

The Manx edition of the game Monopoly has been released today.

People from Island were asked to help choose the places, landmarks and businesses that feature in the game.

A montage of scenes from the Isle of Man in the centre of the board has re-opened an old debate though.

There are two pictures of the Three Legs of Man - one of which is on the Laxey Wheel.

However, a number of people have pointed out that the symbols on both pictures aren't facing in the right direction.

John the Dog Callister has done some research on the matter, which seems to confirm the ones chosen for the monopoly board are the wrong way round.[play media file below]
