@MouseKiro: Versions of Monopoly in the U.K. and U.S.A. use different names for the properties. “Park Place” in the American version is “Park Lane” in the British version. You can compare board layouts at Wikipedia:

Here is my submishe –

The marmalade banker kitteh
Keeps his cash under strict lock and key
His financial prowess
Is legendary, I guess
And he demands two live mice as his fee!

Thanks for the fun contest!!! =^..^=

What is this “Park Place” you’re all on about? *confuzzled*
I put mine in yesterday, but here it is:

At the start they all laughed in hysteria
But my tactics have only grown scarier
Though they may think I’m cute
At this game I’m astute
(But WHY must I play as the terrier?!)

@Squinty: Last time, the winner was named on the post that began the next contest, so I assume it will be the same deal this time around.

I’m too late! Au secours! But I can’t resist a limerick, so here is mine to share.

When building monopolous cittehs
And opposing a marmalade kitteh
A good tip we think
Is to spike kitteh’s drink
With catnip and you will win pretty!

Monopoly cat, made of fail
Rolled the dice with his tail
he got a chance card
and looked at it hard
it said he should go straight to jail!

–
Completely unrelated cute-themed limerick :

I had a small puppy named blue
who never knew quite what to do
full of cunfuzzle
he tilted his muzzle
and let out a tiny, “Baroo?”

ROFL at many of the entries. Great work!

The one that made me laugh hardest this evening was the kitty pooping in the community chest…

The card was making him shed
do not pass go or collect two hundred it said!
The mortgage was making him groggy
and he was stuck with the doggy
He meowed, “Id rather be the thimble instead!”
