After school in 6th grade Mike would go to the 7-11 to play Tron or Pole Position. He was especially good at Tron. He must have had the high score on that machine. Probably spent enough quarters for 1000 loads of laundry. One day, he got an idea. He went into the neighborhood behind 7-11, knocked on a door, and told the lady who answered, "I'm on a scavenger hunt." He read from a sheet of paper, "I need a quarter, some dental floss and a piece of tape." He took the items back to the Tron machine and had visions of endless games as he lowered the quarter into the machine taped to the floss he held from the other end. Sigh, it didn't work. He had to play Pole Position for a while since the Tron game was jammed.
