Friday Timewaster
This Friday, we're goin' really old school with Skee Ball. I know it's a pretty accurate re-creation, because I suck just as bad as I ever did at real Skee Ball.
I worked at the old Supertrack Arcade (R.I.P.) on the Gulf Freeway when I was in high school. We called this game Geezer Ball, because all the old people (i.e. - anyone over the age of 25) played it. Folks would spend many dollars and many hours collecting those silly tickets so they could get cheap tchotchkes out of the glass case -- any of which they could have purchased at Woolworth's for a couple of bucks. Ah, well... there's no understanding what some people find entertaining.

Nope, sorry, the code written for the game must be bad. All the balls I throw only go in the 10 slot. So that conclusively proves the game is broken.
