Channel 8 reports 30 year old Timothy Zimmerman tried to buy scratch-off lottery tickets with fake money they use in filming movies. The bills are clearly marked "for motion picture use only." The incident happened at about 5:15 a.m on March 30. When they asked him about the fake money, they say he took off. But a witness was able to pick him out of a photo lineup. He's now behind bars. He should've offered them the deed to Park Place or Boardwalk and maybe they'd have let him go.

Apparently this fake money is popular with those "Instagram celebrities." You can buy a stack of $100's on Amazon for about $5. Here's what it looks like.
