Monopoly Bank Runs Out of Money

11. What if the Bank runs out of money? Some players think the Bank is bankrupt if it runs out of money. The Bank never goes bankrupt. To continue playing, use slips of paper to keep track of each player's banking transactions — until the Bank has enough paper money to operate again. The banker may also issue "new" money on slips of ordinary paper.

A Monopoly rule card explains what happens when the bank runs out of money: players can use slips of paper as temporary banknotes. The joke comes from treating imaginary Monopoly money like a real bank during a liquidity crisis, making the game sound absurdly bureaucratic.
