What is your drink while MAMEing?
« on: September 18, 2005, 12:00:37 am »
For me it is either Miller Lite - or Ten High.  Ten High is a cheap-arse whiskey, but, TenHigh is made in Kentucky and I think it is nearly indistinguishble from JimBeam.  Mix it with coke - a later-in-the-night drink, mix it with cafiene-free coke.   :angel:  All disclaimers applicable, no-work night / weekends / over 21 etc.

PBR.  Playing Frogger, Q-Bert and Pac Man (so you can still hold your beer of course).

I read that - guys from the early Atari days - purposely made control panels slanted so that people would not put drinks (and spill them) on the panel.

The night I finished my cab the wife was out of town so two of my buddies came over to try it out. The three of us played the damn thing to 3:30 in the morning and drank 2 cases and a 12er of Miller lite. Mostly played Track and Field.

Whatever is on tap in the basement.  Right now I have Leinie's Honeyweiss (my favorite), but it's usually Miller Lite or Mich Golden Light.

Some nice beers being...drunken...drankin in here.  My refurb cab is an old asteroids machine and the very top of the cab is flat and will hold drinks.  I would not like the look of a drink holder on the side of it.

This may be sacreligious to some here, but I often set my drink on my Space Invaders cocktail. I mean it is a cocktail table after all.
