Fruit Machine Chat

*100% true story*


Ok we go into a pub today (large pub 4 fruits) We buy 2 decent drinks and start to play the monopoly, After 30 down the back I hit the rolls. MS starts to roll, fruit goes off, woman starts having a paddy and 12 old bill arrive for a stewards.

They question and search us both along with the car. What a total joke!

Obvioulsy we dont get paid, so will be taking action against the pub for theft.


We are all aware the toolers are burning pubs but what has it come to when a straight MS requires the old bill arriving on mass!

nasty...
it happened to me a few years back in loughboro, apparently the c.i.d had been trailing us
around the pubs.

A mate of mine got nicked and bailed for MONEY LAUNDERING a couple of weeks back BEFORE he even got to play the fruit in Lewisham.

Filth took his phone bank card along with the usual house search too.
Second time this year he reckons.

you're saying she called the police when you got your MS and 12 officers turned up?

how long did it take them to get there?
how many cars are we talking about, or did they arrive in a van?
or are you saying 12 officers were already there, lying in wait for the next tooler to do the pub.

lol

nothing winds me up more on here than reading about people getting f##ked over like this.
the police continue to be naive regarding machines although people having been winning legitimately for decades.
if it is legitimate for people to to do their bolloxs in fruits ,then why the f##k is it regarded by some little jumped up tyrants that anyone who wins is a wrongun? ffs a machine has to payout to be legal,twatty owners like it or lump it!

imagine going into a bookies and being told on producing a winning slip "old bill are on the way" or if you read the form you're not allowed to bet.

i would definitely go ballistic if this sort of shite happenned to me in a pub .


simmer down,... rant over. :x

I bet they showed up in record time. I had to call the police this week to report some poor old bloke getting the shit beat out of him outside our shop. Took them 15 minutes to show up - maybe I shold have reported someone fluking a GATW on a deal or no deal instead to make them arrive faster.

that's why I ask. 12 police officers don't show up to deal with this and they also aren't already there.

smells like an over active imagination to me

It has never happened to me personally but I do know of a case of quiz machine players having similar probs years ago. Although in that case the police were quite happy with the explaination that they were pro players and found it all rather funny.

The problem you have now though is all the problems with toolers and notey scammers causing flak for everyone.

Mystery plum I had to leave your posting on the radiator for thirty minutes before I could read it properly.

No mate, 12 coppers 5 cars, obviously every car around turnt up. But I have to say only 4 hung around for the duration.

not buying it.
"All units respond. Two IC1 males reported emptying a fruit machine."
Unless there was absolutely nothing going on, it was a shift change and the pub is very close to the station. Doesn't seem very likely

were you challenged by the landlady and you kicked off?

Was it a Friday? Perhaps they just all wanted an excuse to get to a pub?

Back in my barman days, I used to serve a couple of rozzers - regulars. They necked Stella like water and always ended up being the ones causing trouble! We had to phone the public once to come and nick them...
