So I got a Canadian Quarter back from Burger King today, and since I live in Alabama, this is pretty much useless to me until I sneak it back to some fast-food joint. But my question to you Canadians is:
Instead of Heads-or-Tails, do you guys do Heads-or-Elk?
PS...I am REALLY bored right now at work...

Your poor soul! Our money is worthless!
Actually, isn't the exchange rate about the same lately?
And yes, "Heads or Elk" is a common passtime in igloos throughout Canada :)

Could be...but again, being in Alabama, not a lot of places to exchange...and the stupid vending machine here won't take it....
Now if it were a euro, I'd hang on to it for dear life as that's (from what I've heard) currently worth $3,140.

I though we only played heads or building when we got the odd American penny up here (odd, because it's seems every other penny in circulation seems to be american here) grrrrr

On the quarter, we should replace the Queen with William Shatner and replace the elk with Wayne Gretzky.

I second this. I want to refer to my money as "Kirks".

Well yeah, but at least with the 'Merican quarters, you can see the tail of the eagle....with this, it's just the head of the elk...so really, it's heads or heads.
Oooh, how about heads or antlers?? Yeah, I like that better.
Wait till you see the new ones. People will be saying "Ok, Geddy Lee or Neil Peart?!".

we wouldnt use a quarter for a coin flip anyways.. we'd use a loonie or a twoonie. our quarters are like nickles to u guys. and our nickle has a beaver on it. and the loonie has a loon on it. i forget whats on the twoonie. i only deal in hundreds!

not wayne gretzky... it should be mark messier... after all he is 'the moose'
