Were you any good at those claw machine games?

There's a technique about the big metal three claw ones, assuming your goal is a round plushie or inflated rubber ball. Get the object between two, and the third somewhat holds it up from below and stabilizes the grip the first two have on the object.

I remember winning once in my life and this was the ever first time i tried it. Probably was a glitch or scripted win cause i never won again no matter how many times I tried.

Impossible to be good at them. They're rigged, a scam. Basically the claw would be very loose designed to drop every item, till a set amount where it would actually function and get an item. They need to get rid of them tbh.

Guess I'm the only one who never tried one of these
There's one in the mall near where I live, though, inside there are soccer balls.

The only thing I ever won from one of these (after a few bucks' worth of tokens) was a little stuffed bat.
It was at a haunted house and amusement park themed place during Halloween
And yeah, they are rigged, but that's half the fun.

Me neither! Well, actually I tried one a few months ago, but didn't get anything :P

As a kid my mom wouldn't let me play them because she said they were all rigged, and so my career as a pro claw operator died early.
