    I recall Speedy's would do a thing where after midnight you could rent the place out. Needed 20 people at around ten bucks each. Free Go-Kart rides until 2 and free video games, pool, etc. until 5, and they let us bring in a keg.

    Good times...

    Man that sounds awesome getting kicked out but getting to come back repeatedly and do that stuff. I think arcades/go-kart racing like that remind me of simpler times as a kid just no worries etc having a great time w/ friends.

    Anyway I definitely agree with you on Outrun. And also glad someone remembers Rampage, haha

    Kung Fu Master reminded me of Shinobi. Love me some Shinobi also. I'm fairly certain this game was at Mazzios in Huntsville. I definitely dropped some coin in Shinobi a fair number of times.

    Man! Nice share! I need to try these some time, I vaguely remember these ones, I think even though shared earlier the one I remember the most was Star Wars.

    Always a fan of plane bullet hell, beat 'em ups, or light gun games.

    Battlezone was actually used as a training video for the US Army. I'm a big gaming historian, and love this stuff.

    That football game where you rolled the ball. Track and Field where you had to mash the buttons really fast and used a small comb in between your fingers. Frogger and Q-Bert and Dig Dug and Moon Patrol?
