Feel free to add your ideas in Comments.
As Rod Serling used to say….for your consideration…
Bank is robbed in front of you. Robber drops a Wilson Combat 1911 (in 45acp of course). You point it out to responding police officer to take as evidence. – pay 10,000 dollars
Out of the blue Salma Hayek calls your cell phone and begs for sex right NOW. You hang up. – pay 5,000 dollars.
Congratulations! You have unexpectedly been elected President.
– But it wasn’t your “Turn”. Lose all your hotels
There’s a Global Pandemic
– Nobody needs to pay you rent until everybody passes GO! (Twice ).
You have been Canceled

You buy an Electric Car.
– For the next two turns, move only the amount of squares indicated on the smaller of the dice.
