I just don't understand why it's on tv. Does anyone's life get altered by this change?

I'm stoked for sure. Who wants to be an iron anyway?

Yeah sorry I guess I shouldn't have assumed people automatically know. But yeah I mean now you don't have to be an iron, but I'm never buying another monopoly set for the one time I play it every three years.

It's just light, pop culture news. Not everything has to be super important in the world.
Monopoly is a well know board game that has spawned out to trillions if different versions.

Lighten up a little.
