When my youngest son as a child and teenager he was very good at operating and winning the claw machines. Later my daughter did use those machine too won a lot too. My son's daughter takes after her father and can operate and win a bunch of stuffed animals too! The other day my daughter and I went shopping at Walmart wherein the entrance lobby was a Claw Machine. She had some quarters and won a pink llama stuffed animal. Then she ran out of quarters. She got change inside the store as we were checking out and on the way out she played again and won another pink llama and another animal. I was given one of the pink stuffed animal's, which I properly named, "Pinky"

I was okay at the claw machines but never that good. My brother and mom on the other hand almost always won. Really irritated me aha.

I would only win a few times. Oh well! I am better at other things that they aren't.

That's a pretty good skill to have. I don't think I've ever seen anyone win anything although my brother-in-law used to win watches years ago on these types of machines.

I thought Pinky was a sheep. I was never really good with claw machine. I tried A lot of times but to no success.
