EA, Hasbro declare April 7 Global Monopoly Day, seek Guinness record

Forget Friday or even Hump Day. The best day of your life is about to happen ... tomorrow. Alright, so that's a bit of a stretch, but what EA and Hasbro have planned is super cool nonetheless. Both EA and Hasbro have announced that tomorrow, April 7, will be known as Global Monopoly Day. (Does this mean we get a day off work to play Monopoly? No? Dammit!) The event is to set a Guinness World Record with EA and Playfish's brand new Facebook game: Monopoly Millionaires. The goal? To set the record for the highest amount of people simultaneously playing the game. Oh, and they're throwing in chances to win from over $20 thousand in prizes for tomorrow's lucky players.
