“From great local businesses, all the landmarks, the statues, the places you hang out, the places you went as a kid, the places you go to as an adult.”
“This board is going to feature the best of San Jose,” said Aaron Green, a rep from Top Trumps USA, which is producing the game under license from Hasbro. Top Trumps USA is announcing a new San Jose version of Monopoly, licensed by Hasbro, at the city’s Monopoly in the Park - the world’s largest board. Monopoly stands at Monopoly in the Park in San Jose, Calif., on Wednesday, March 1, 2023. And don’t forget we’re home to Monopoly in the Park, the world’s largest Monopoly board game, which is where the announcement was made Wednesday morning. That Silicon Valley allure - and San Jose’s standing as the nation’s 10th largest city - helped make it a good candidate for its own edition of the legendary board game.
Then again, where else but San Jose could the legendary board game’s mascot probably qualify for affordable housing? Monopoly must have felt at home in tech wealthy Silicon Valley on Wednesday.
