What’s the best thing you ever got out of one of those quarter/ gum ball machines when you were a kid?

I got a ring that looked I had a nail going through my finger. I LOVED IT SO MUCH.

  • My dads friends owned a bar and bowling alley.  It had tones of arcade and pine all machines in the front and a bowling ally in the back.  I used to get to hang out there and bowl for free and play games during the day. So anyway I would have to go turn the pins setters on.and off to bowl and there was a back room with video poker.machines and cats tables they did illegal gambling out of on certain nights.  One day I went shopping and found that room and it had those walk after machines.  I thought the video poker.machines were just another arcade room.  The quarter machines with this plastic bubbles had Tibet rolled up strips of naked chicks.  In the machine I thought they were rolls of paper caps or something.  My dads took away and I got in trouble for going in the poker room.
