We would go to commercial construction sites and get metal blanks from the conduit boxes that you punched out for holes and file them down to the size of a quarter and use them in machines.

I suspect it was for the attempted theft, thing, not the getting stuck thing. Maybe next year he won't try to rip them off again, learning his lesson.

Yeah, but I never said that it wasn't and it's still stupid.

The claw machine is the real thief.

Nah, if he tried to steal from your house, plying with your kid, you wouldn't invite him back for a while either.

HE's a follower of Pillow Boy and just wanted to emulate him.

I know, I meant that it's stupid that he did that.

I would ban him longer

It certainly wouldn't bother me. If somebody is caught trying to steal from you, it is the business owner's privilege to ban from the premises as long as they like. Nobody owes thieves an invitation back.

I have seen five year olds get caught in those claw machines
Never a 13 year old

Attempted petit larceny? Damage to a machine? A juvie arrest record would be better.

Hard to see how a five year-old gets in one, much less a 13 year old.

Amen to this. My first thought when seeing the headline was, "How can a kid that old have the ability to even get in there?"

God bless you always!!!

Simple, sell pillows, push lies and go onto a talk show.

My only guess is that big prizes need a big chute to come out of

Article refers to him as a "child". While technically true, "teen" is a better term, or "youth".
