This is probably the last thing you expect to find when undertaking some property DIY.

A homeowner was left speechless when he took up his old carpet to discover a giant Monopoly board painted on the floorboards underneath....

No one knows why the previous tenants converted an entire room to a giant Monopoly board. “They make the floor one giant board so after 7 hours nobody flips the board over in rage,” the Reddit user who posted the image joked....

I'd keep it and have it touched up.

That's awesome! I would definitely keep it and then I would have to decorate the rest of the room to go with the theme.

Why is there a sexy girl figure? I don't recall seeing that on my monopoly board.

Maybe the original owners wanted to get exercise while moving around the Monopoly board?

:run:

I wonder if the new owners will find "Twister" under the carpet in another room?

:spinner:

 

[IHAVENOCLUE]

Oh noooo.....

I hope the new owners do not find a huge Ouija Board under the carpet of another room!!! :what:

:ghost: :mummy: :violin:

 

[Snoods]

The first thing I thought of was "Jumanji!" Finding a mysterious game? Me screaming, "DON'T PLAY IT!!"

 

[BeginnersLuck]

Oh noooo.....

I hope the new owners do not find a huge Ouija Board under the carpet of another room!!! :what:

:ghost: :mummy: :violin:

If you don't like cat's, the mousetrap game would be necessary.

Yes, I'm actually glad that I haven't had to play that game this year, since the weather has gotten cold. I think I may have finally won it.

Too bad... :sigh:

Yes, that's a bummer for sure! I thought when I say the lady figure, there might be something more to the game. I don't understand why it was necessary to paint over it and then additionally cover it in carpet. What a shame.
