    I have never played the "money in the middle" before, but my parents would play it like GO when I was little, giving us 100 instead of 200 if you managed to land on it. I remember never liking monopoly as a kid until I was 14 and read the rules. When there was a storm and our power went off, we played it correctly and it entertained us for hours and it was actually nice to play ir correctly for once with the family.

      It artificially makes the game longer while ruining the fundamentals of the game: winning by getting monopolies.
      And it limits the cash the bank has, which prevents the game from being played properly.
      Monopoly is designed around being frustrating and unfair.

Without the free parking dream, a lot of players would be stuck helplessly until they’re knocked out which isn’t very fun. Having even a slim chance at catching up keeps all the players in good spirits.

    for everyone confused by this, one of the most common house rules in monopoly is that anytime someone pays a penalty instead of paying it to the bank they pay it to a separate fund, anyone who lands on free parking collects the fund, this rule is so popular that it actually exists in the official monopoly video game, there are also a couple other popular house rules involving free parking, which is what leads to people getting confused about what the space actually does

      Because they remember being taught this “jackpot” rule by their parents or grandparents and because they never actually read the rules back then, so it was assumed that their parents taught them the actual rules. Then as adults, they wind up in a “debate” about the “Jackpot rule”, so they check the rules, see it is not a rule and then they wind up assuming the rules were changed so when someone DOES argue that the “jackpot” was never a rule…so eventually they call the company’s helpline. When so many people play this way and knowing that game companies have decided to slightly alter so many rules for classic games, its not really a surprise.
      Also, when you know the game was about “real life” economics, it seems pretty obvious that it wouldn’t be an actual rule.

      I would argue that house rule is the reason that fights, incomplete or 4 hour long games, and people growing a distaste for the game happen

    People play that way because they say “oh the free parking space cant do NOTHING! That would be boring!” But a space with nothing is more interesting than every space. Every space does something, majority of them do the same thing, so a space that does nothing is the least basic thing possible.
