When I was a kid, I tried to play 25 cent arcade machines for free and to get free sodas from vending machines. I didn't ask my parents for permission or tell my friends. I just did it. Later on, I experimented with skee ball machines, dave and buster games, IGT slot machines, Kate, etc. Take a real wild guess if I tried to ATM with VGC. I don't think it's silly to do it. I do think its silly if you only plan to do it once and not study the aftermath.
