PICTIONARY: A RAGS TO RICHES TALE
Rob Angel's occupation was a waiter in Seattle. In 1986, he developed the fast-paced drawing game of Pictionary. He reportedly refined his idea by playing the game with friends in bars. The game first sold in Nordstrom's department stores before being picked up by a series of games distributors, which made the game a huge success and the former waiter a millionaire.
