Legends, as they grow over time, often get things wrong. Robin Hood did indeed steal from the rich. He did not, however, give any of this money to the poor. He gambled it all away. Slots, poker, blackjack, dice games in back alleys…whatever kind of gambling he could find.
Little John was always a naive optimist, at every robbery thinking “This time he’ll give it to the poor. This time we’ll make a difference.”
sweet!
