Is this where the game of monopoly was played with humans being the pieces and that was classified as the largest monopoly board ever? Or is this just the largest permanent monopoly board?

Yep that was 12 Power Grid maps back to back over two days. Worth doing, but possibly not in such a concentrated burst.

Ooh yes, now a little to the left - my nose is itchy. No, no the other left! Now what colour is 12 supporter badge going to be I wonder?

Large board yes, but not the largest. There was a thread or two floating about a few months back about one doing the rounds of Home Shows in Australia which I am pretty sure was bigger than this one.

I made a mistake in the caption. Its actual title is "The World's Largest Permanent Outdoor Monopoly Board" and it has appeared in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Here's a link to its web page: http://www.monopolyinthepark.com/

Click on the "See How The Game Is Played" link to view video clips.
