dice landing on top of each other
Quote: cowboyThe most shocking thing to me about this whole thread is that the face-up dice in the second picture have to total 11.
That was good!
I very rarely vulture machines, I dont think I stop and gawk at cokctailwatressesQuote: AlanMendelsonWell then... it's like stopping from hunting for abandoned multipliers to look at the cocktail waitresses.
You do look, don't you?
I vaguely remember a movie where the shooter takes the dice and they land on top of each other and it changes the shooters life.
The movie setting was Little Italy in NYC. It was probably made between 1980 and 2000. I also think it had a Christmas story line.

Google the photos of bullets that collided in mid air in battles.

Our foursome witnessed two golf balls hit toward the same hole collide in mid-air. Of course, normal etiquette is to wait, but this time each player assumed it was his turn to hit as they were on opposite sides of the fairway and it was not obvious whose ball was furthest from the green.
I agree though that your situation would be even rarer.

Crazy. I like the video of the baseball pitch exploding the flying pigeon.

No. It wasn't A Bronx Tale. Thanks for your response.

Quote: comicnerdThe movie is 29th Street with Anthony LaPaglia and Danny Aiello. Anthony LaPaglia’s character throws the dice and it upsets a mobster at the opposite end of the table who threatens to kill him over it.

YES YES YES
That is the movie.
Thank you for the answer.
Despite billing itself as a "comedy-thriller on a lucky streak", the film failed to score with most critics. Film historian Leonard Maltin called it "Dreadful...almost completely devoid of laughs or suspense."

There, it was a documentary!
Quote: TorghattenI overheard the dealers discussing it at MGM a few days ago. One told he observed it every 12th-18th months on average.

I've played craps for some 33 years (some years very seldom though), and I've seen this happen exactly twice, separated by a couple of years. I was not the shooter either time.
First time, landed in the #6 position (right next to the dealer) but in the clear. Die was lifted off to reveal the bottom die and the call made.
Second time dice landed in a pocket formed be the cheque bank, where a stack of dollar cheques could have been, back against the wall. Call was no-roll.
No, I don't have pics of either roll, both tables were full at the time, so the dice were swept.
I thought your first sentence was about the 18 Yos.
A couple nights ago, the casino handymen were disassembling a lot of table games and moving them around. They even had 6-8 people lifting a couple craps tables to move them 2-3 feet. Then they took apart a couple other craps tables and moved those a couple feet. The rail was standing on its side on the floor, and they were dusting off the felt underneath where the rail was. They had to disconnect all the signage and player's club computers and reconnect them. They were trying to make a better traffic pattern going into the nightclub so hordes of people don't have to navigate certain rows of tables, there's now a larger aisle they can use. The casino gets sold in a few months, but I was assured this movement had nothing to do with that. Maybe a fire marshal showed up, or ATF or something.
They are also replacing many slot machines. It's kind of weird to see slot machines totally powered down but there's blinking amber lights around where the player's card goes in. There is so much rearrangement going on right now, I can't imagine.
One day at Red Rock a player's chip slipped under the "ring" which forms the wall around the table surface. It took three of us to lift the ring high enough so the player could get his chip back. I dont know how a chip could slide under the ring but it did.
