Sydney gets into the first international version of Monopoly
Sydney has made its way into the first international edition of Monopoly. Sydney appears in the red group along with New York and London.
Quote:
Among the other cities in the running was Melbourne, which did not record enough votes for inclusion.
"Eat your heart out Melbourne ... nowhere to be found," NSW Premier Morris Iemma said at the board game launch in Sydney today.
Cities included in the world edition are Montreal, Riga, Capetown, Belgrade, Paris, Jerusalem, Hong Kong, Beijing, London, New York, Vancouver, Shanghai, Rome, Toronto, Kyiv (Kiev), Istanbul, Athens, Barcelona, Tokyo, Taipei, Gdynia (Gdansk) and of course, Sydney.
