Yes Virgina, there is a santa claw...
So, someone got this brilliant idea to create the worlds largest claw machine. With prize bubbles bigger than the size of basketballs. Oh and you can only play it online. There's a live video feed of people playing it and if you win something, they even send it to you!
The claw machine game can be played at http://www.thesantaclaw.com and you can read article about it all over the place. Like this one http://www.geekosystem.com/the-santa-claw/

Now here's the best part... the santa claw is RIGHT HERE IN DAYTON. It's literally like two blocks from where I live. I'm going to try to go down there tonight and take photos. My friend's company actually did the graphics installation for it. So cool.
Now the cruel irony is that you have to "get in line" to play... and well, right now the wait time is like 250 minutes. I have to wait three hours to play it online when it's a 5 minute walk from my apartment door! lol
Either way, I'm totally in love with it. Go play it! If you live in the US they will send you any prize you win! I don't think the whole world knew about it a few days ago, but now the lines are real long and you have to wait lol. I wonder how long they will keep it going. I would gladly donate "stuff" for them to give away! It's all just the most completely random stuff! Big plastic dinosaurs, leather pants, whatever. I'm so stoked on how cute this thing is!
