Have you ever played MONOPOLY all the way to a single winner? Heck, has anybody ever done this, or does every game of MONOPOLY just kind of peter out at some point?

I mostly remember the board going "whoopsie" at some point, usually when I was ahead – one of my fellow players would get in a snit and tip it over.
Monopoly only starts after I get to be the magic hat. It only ends after I have made someone cry or driven them to only collect one dollar bills.
I always get bored and either give away all my holdings, or lose on purpose. It's a boring game.
I've played to completion a couple of times. It's not worth it.
I have played to completion – or the inevitable end, down to two players, and one has a hotel on Boardwalk – several times, but don't even think I've played since Carol and I got married, because the game we got as a present (Albany-themed) is unopened.
