"Remote."

HA!

At Grandma's house, I was the remote. :\

Asteroids was my jam. Score rolled over to zero past 99,990 or something like that. So the trick was to play as long as you wanted and then crash your last spaceship to finish with the top possible score.

Old pinball machines that would go "Clack!" loudly behind the scoreboard, when you got an extra game. The last of these were at our local bowling alley in the early '80s.

we had both a bowling alley with a decent arcade and an Aladdin's Castle within walking distance when i was in elementary school...

I must have spent a grand on the Gauntlet arcade game the year that came out...

Long time ago I found a little blue marble next to a tee pad in OKC. It's still in my bag.

who let this guy in: that's an age check fail, at least where i grew up; maybe in japan/china. tho i did enjoy street fighter 2 later, my formable years were wasted* playing my dad's apple2e: skyfox, spyhunter, chess, lode runner, choplifter, swashbuckler, moon patrol, transylvania, arkanoid, frogger, etc. before the nes came out.

*no time can be wasted if it is enjoyed

Played both sets of Highland Park baskets (36 holes); hit the "new" 18-hole West Park layout (54 holes); bagged new niner on way home (Valpo U) (63 total holes).

I'm sore. :\

 

[Jukeshoe]

Don't thumb that up, Brutus, I shouldn't be sore!

Speaking o fingers... I hope the one the doctor uses to check my prostate isn't the one he picks his nose with.

If it is, his nose will care a lot more than your hiney...

I have a 60 for 60 casual tournament set up this weekend to celebrate turning 60. We're going to do twice around on three short courses, two 9s and a 12. Should be fun.
