Man Uses Monopoly Board To Get Around Atlantic City (VIDEO)

First Posted: 10/06/10 03:11 PM ET   Updated: 05/25/11 06:55 PM ET

Our friend Robert Reid, the U.S. editor at Lonely Planet, regularly hosts "76-second travel shows" on the Lonely Planet blog.

His shows are always entertaining, but this one in particular caught our eye since we are a) kind of obsessed with Monopoly and b) because it's a fun and unique way to travel.

We love the idea of walking around a town that has as much history as Atlantic City does, and we love that the Parker Brothers came up with such a genius game so many years ago.

While this video is a bit longer than 76 seconds, it's definitely worth a look.
