How To Be a Sore Loser

Casino City Times had this priceless news bit:

As reported by the Miami Herald: "After dropping some cash at the Miccosukee Resort & Gaming hall in West Miami-Dade Thursday night, an unlucky gambler got into his pickup truck and crashed it into the casino's glass doors.

"Several witnesses said the man appeared angry as he left the casino, claiming he'd lost $10,000.

"The man, who Miccosukee police did not identify, had been in the casino at 500 SW 177th Ave. since at least 10 a.m. playing machines, according to witnesses. He left the building about 8 p.m., headed into the free parking lot and got into his newly purchased Ford F-150. Witnesses said he flashed his headlights -- and then charged the building, hitting it between the arcade and the day care center…"

Yeah, we guess we'd be angry if we lost ten thousand dollars too, but now he's going to have to pay court fees, damages, and probably spend some time in jail. Oh yeah, and good luck getting off that blacklist.
