What I want to know is what happens when people like me who only eat at McDonalds once during the entire contest and don't realize that they got the "rare" piece and throw it away?
Does McDonald's just keep that allotted prize money?

im not sure if the math on that is right as it looks really wrong.
11 x 651x10^6 = 7.161x10^9
Off by a factor of 2.

The odds of finding Park Place are 1 in 11. But, the odds of acquiring Boardwalk are around 1 in 651 million. So, your chances of getting them both are about 1 in 3.5 billion.

9. The con artists who rigged the game were the ones who mailed the winning piece to St Jude’s. The hospital said they would return the money, but McDonald’s allowed them to keep it.
Best publicity they could get. If McDonald's had tried to sue St. Jude to keep the money, the "court of public opinion" would have fried them (pun not necessarily intended).

I'm not very good at math, but I think that means you're about 20 times more likely to hit the Powerball than win McDonalds Monopoly and you don't have to eat at McDonalds to win the Powerball.

if that actually happened to me ever, i would probably just walk around mcdonald's and give someone $5 for park place.
If I had boardwalk I'd give some 1000 for park place and make their day.
