On April 15th a new champion will emerge from Union Station in Washington, DC.  That is the 2009 Monopoly National Champion along with winnings of $20,580 and entry to the World Championships in Las Vegas in October.  Who doesn’t dream of this?  (although the last time I checked, players had to pay their own way to the tournament, so it may remain a dream for many)

MONOPOLY players of all skill levels across the country are invited to enter the competition to qualify for the 2009 MONOPOLY United States National Championship tournament. For more information on how to qualify for the National Championship,  visit www.monopoly.com before March 12, 2009.
