...in a bowling alley across the street from that apartment, patrons were marveling at the sight of a little boy—surrounded by stuffed animals—sitting inside an arcade-style claw machine....how’d he get into the machine in the first place? Nobody’s certain, but according to a BuzzFeed report, one bowling alley employee speculated the child might have climbed in through the machine’s prize door.

I can't see how the kid could have climbed in via the prize door. I wonder if anyone played the machine, trying to win him for a dollar?

I would not give him a free stuffed animal. That will only encourage him to do it again.

Isn’t it way past time for sensible claw machine legislation?

I am more interested in how he escaped mom’s notice long enough to get across the street.

When I read the headline, I envisioned a little toddler behind the pin setting machine, getting broomed with the pins, bowling balls rolling toward him.
