You can pass go, get out of jail free, and collect real money. The French version of Monopoly is celebrating its 80th year by slipping cash into 80 boxes of the game. According to Hasbro, one box will have the full complement in real money — 20,580 euros, that’s more than $23,000 — as well as the Monopoly money needed to actually play the game. Another 79 boxes will have smaller amounts. The promotional offer runs from February 2nd to March 30th. The Paris version lets players buy the Champs Elysees, four railroad stations, and other famous avenues of the French capital.
