Dudes playing fruit machine on king's day

Pay your euro and pull the lever! This human slot machine was set up during the Koningsdag (King's Day) celebrations last weekend in the Netherlands. The holiday is observed every April 27th for the king's birthday. Slot machines are called fruit machines in parts of Europe. It takes a while for the slots to start spinning as the guys say their arms are tired, but they still have their sense of humor. The beer certainly helps. You can tell that most of their patter is jokes, even if you don't understand Dutch. The language has been described as the uncanny valley of languages, halfway between English and German, so both English and German speakers feel they should understand it and the effect is that these guys are very talented at speaking gibberish.

I reckon we should all call our unit of currency the same name, but shortened, as our country.
The Euro for Europeans
The Brit for the British
The Oz for the Australians
The Can for the Canadians
The Can-Can for the French Canadians
The State for the Americans (or The Uni)
The Ruzz for the Russians
The US Dollar for the Ukrainians
The Letter for the French
The Gnu for New Zealanders
The Bra for Brazilians
The Mex for Mexicans
You do the other 160 odd countries.
