Stolen league money
- Thread starter easy-e
- Start date
How does that keep the money from disappearing if the crooks get to the carry-away safe? How would it have helped in the OP's case?
My guess is that most at least maintain an league bank account.
Some simply track the balance within an existing balance; easy enough considering all teams input the same amount each week.
I know of at least one that operates out of a safety deposit box at the bank.
Everything beats the shoe box with a lock at the house...
If the LO had business insurance covering theft then the story could have a better ending.
Also, without registering as a business the LO is exposing his/her personal assets to lawsuits and claims.
First ...ring.com. $250 for a HD camera.
Second ....get a safe (gun safe) that can’t just be carried away
Third....be a legitimate business and have a bank account to put the money in.
Fourth....pay the money to the league out by whatever means you can cause it’s still the LO responsibility. That means get a loan, sell your car, whatever you need to do.

Insurance is going to default if/when a business owner maintains months worth of collected funds unsecured at ones house.
If/when a business or LO maintains months worth of collected funds unsecured at ones house... his/her personal assets should be exposed.
Even if the funds were maintained in a perfectly secured / bolted down / heavy as a car safe... a ugly robbery could still result in a loss...
Meanwhile, banks are insured.
With the Nationals changing dates now for.the second time in a decade, it is almost impossible for leagues to maintain a yearly schedule such that the payouts are timed to coincide with the Nationals. I do not see any problem requiring league players to pay for entries/travel with their own money and receive league payouts later.
This is why I said a bank would be a good thing.
Us’ns up here call a carry-away safe a cash box...and you can pick that lock with a hair pin.
LO: "Whoops!! The league money got stolen from my house last night.. Sorry you already put out 2K of your own money to go to Vegas, and won't get any of that back.... That sucks for you!" (But at least it was "convenient" for me!)
No offense KD, but you are nuts
CSI won’t do shit. Does the WPA do anything when Barry stiffs the players year after year? No. They only make stupid press releases. How about when the Phillipino promoter in 2008 or so stiffed the payout of the WPA sanctioned world championship, that Efren and Busty boycotted before hand, because they knew the promoter was a bum? Or how about Mackey stiffing all the players for a years worth of tournaments.
Bottom line: Regardless of who is the “regulating body”, they have never done shit when someone steals or donkeys off the cash.
That's not entirely true. APA will make good with the members then get it from the LO.
I keep hoping to open up this thread and see that the money has been found and all the players got paid
Or that there was some sort of significant development.
Or that someone called to see if a police report has been filed.
Easy-E said he'd look into posting a copy of the police report, if he found one, as I recall.
I’ve seen the initial form that was provided when the police responded. Not much detail. I’ve called the police department twice to get more info, both times I hung up after 10 rings. I’ll try again.
Go to Court
If the LO owes you enough money that you want it then take him to smail claims court (be sure to charge him for every stamp, envelope and mile you drive in taking to court) and get a judgement against him. If he doesn't pay then put a lien on any assets he has like his home. It may take a while, but he can't sell his house without paying the judgement first.
