Headed to Portland next week for PRGE and in hindsight I should have bought this T-shirt I spotted at the flea market
A cream colored T-shirt with three frogs on it. The one in the middle has a cowboy hat and two in the background have nightly colored hair. The text around the frogs reads "Giddy Up Sluts"

Also saw this CRT in a clear case. When I mentioned I had never seen one like it the vendor said "I guess you've never been to prison"

I never considered buying a vintage Chuck E. Cheese-branded tray but it was $10 at the flea market and 100% my jam

I, too, learned from a kid that if you kicked the Frogger coin door hard enough it’d credit up. Though the method I learned was facing away from the machine and hitting it with my heel. Maybe it was the same kid going from town to town in the Midwest teaching kids how to play Frogger for free

I dunno, around 1983 or so, at an arcade in a K-Mart, a kid showed me that a swift kick, not that hard, to the coin door of the Frogger machine added a credit. That's how I broke my toe, but also got the high score on Frogger.

Infamous (?) ad for Gaiares for the Sega Genesis that features a mullet-wearing professional gamer Jamie Bunker holding a Gaiares box and signaling #1 with his right hand. The text says "Gaiares is number one!" And advertises a free t-shirt that Jamie is wearing. It's white and in blue text it says "can you say" followed by the Gaiares logo and underneath "guy-are-us"

Or the *perfect* time to start watching the show. I remember going to see a Mandy matinee with @wes.readonlymemo.com while I was extremely hung over. In hindsight I think it was appropriate
