Maj Jongg shuffling tables

Simply amazing; shove all the tiles into the hole in the center, it shuffles 'em around and lines 'em up for the four players, ready for another game. Wow.

And it's only $1200 each. For one table, for four players.

Sorry, no. Not a good use of CDD resources.

I also found a couple of plastic sheets for $9.99 that you can slide under the tiles to pick them up and shuffle them.

Shuffling the tiles for a new game is part of process of playing Maj Jongg. These tables are very expensive, can't be used for other activities, and would be a gross waste of the rec center's resources.

I found him to be a jerk, also!

Agreed. Emailed him once and received a rude and condescending response.

Rohan's attitude is that he is in charge and he does not negotiate. Don't waste your time.

I would suggest buying the Table for your home and have Mah Jong at your house.

You should have seen the shenanigans his nephew got away with while working for TV at Buffalo Glen softball fields. Despite most of his work day spent sleeping or smoking weed, he kept his job. Despite getting out of his cart in full view of over 50 women, dropping his pants and pulling out his thing to wiz on the grass between the fields (instead of driving the cart 75 yards to the bathroom), he kept his job. He didn't get fired when he took (stole) the villages owned work cart on a joy ride one night and wrecked it. He only got fired for refusing a to do a drug test after this event. Nepotism at it's finest. John Rohan certainly has job security no matter what he does. If they fired him, they'd have to rename a rec center.
