I love the look on some peoples faces. --- End quote --- LOL, I did that as well and felt out of place doing it. For a while there, every time I'd go out to the Movie theatre, I'd tell my friend or family members to hold on a sec. I just want to take a look at something and do the head nod gesture toward the arcade. They understood and knew that it wasn't even to play a game. It was to spec out some cab build detail or something. |

A little dated now, but happened when I was a teenager: You worked weekends to get "quarter money." You stopped going to your local 7-11 when it stopped having arcade games. While playing at your local 7-11 (before above), you don't even turn your head from your game to look out the window when somebody says, "Dude, I think you bike is being stolen." ... ... until you get to a break between levels. Standing outside the 7-11 after your bike was stolen, you aren't sure what you're more pissed at: losing your bike, or losing the two lives you had left when you ran outside after looking between levels when it was too late anyway. :( |

you take apart a cabinet your restoring for somebody else in order to measure it and record its dimensions for posterity (and fellow arcade addicts) |
