The world’s biggest Monopoly fan and Guinness World Record holder from Crawley collected his 2,000th special edition Monopoly Board – at the top of Sydney Harbour Bridge.  

Last summer Neil Scallan spoke to Susy Radio after breaking his world record attempt for the most Monopoly board games in a collection with over 1,800 editions of the board game.  Neil’s climb to the top of Sydney Harbour Bridge last week meant he could tick off his number one bucket list experience and collect his 2,000th special edition Monopoly board at the same time.

He was surprised by Mr Monopoly awaiting his arrival at the summit of the bridge.
