Cheapest is to get there at 6pm or earlier and just feed the meter to 8pm, after that is free. Meter parking can be found around the Tinsletown area.

Lol not even the Quebec loto Corp let's a single game happen, although with their system if you choose win and your team wins in a shootout it counts as a tie and a win..
From now on I'm only playing 2 games, and if I do anything else it will be like $2 on 6 games
whoever was looking at how to play oddset, all you do is ask for a menu, look at the games, then pick visitor, tie, or home team
you fill in the corresponding dots for the game/outcome you want, color in the bubble for how many games your playing and how much you want to bet and voilą! Posted via RS Mobile |

You basically share a percentage of the pot that week with everyone who also got 11/13 or 12/13 or 13/13. The last 13/13 winners on toto got about $29K each, there where 3 winners, before that there was only one 13/13 winner getting about $81K

Ya I always park on the streets by Tinseltown. I always get there around 5:15 so I just feed the meter 6 bucks. Last year those tinseltown meters were only a dollar an hour, but those fucktards have increased it to 2 bucks an hour now.

Noticed this never got much attention, linesman Pat Dapuzzo on his career ending injury http://nhl.fanhouse.com/2009/10/27/p...ers-his-face/# Quote:
When Steve Downie was checked by Fedor Tyutin and we became entangled along the boards, Downie's leg whipped around and his skate blade cut my nose off. There was a hole in my face.
| Quote:
Their doctors sewed my nose back on. It took more than 40 stitches. The doctors were alarmed because my left eye was drooping. They told me I could not go back on the ice because I could die. My face was fractured. That was when I realized this was more than just a brutal cut.

Not a lot of people realize the danger in being a linesman or official in the NHL or any sport.
They are relied on to make the game go on and at the same time blamed and criticized for making "unpopular" calls.
It's a tough job and did you see the courage for Dapuzzo to get back up? His face is broken and he still had the guts to stop the fight. Unbelievable.
All the best to you Dapuzzo and hope you have a speedy recovery!

Shouldn't have played Osgood in my pool. Thought the game would be tighter!
