A 23-year-old in Clemson, S.C., was recently hospitalized because he was hit by an SUV attempting to play a real-life version of Frogger, a la Seinfeld. Click here to read the story.
I find this to be an unbelievable news story, but not because he got hit. What I want to know is, who are these 23 year olds who like Frogger? We see a lot of early 20 somethings walk through the door begging for directions to the Tekken and Street Fighter machines - to date, I've never seen one jonesing for a game of Frogger, or any classic game for that matter. They don't know what they're missing!

New DK High Scores...Hours Update
Hello and Happy Holidays!
As 2010 is winding down, our scoreboard is heating up...Check out Randy Y's (YEG) newest update to the High Score board - upping his own existing score to an impressive 505,200!
Also, as Shawn and I will both be away from our "day jobs" this week (and in light of the holiday schedule) we have some flexibility in our hours. We will be open on Thursday, December 30 from 6-10 pm and Saturday, January 1 from 2-10 pm. If you're thinking of visiting Burlington and doing some gaming on another night, give us a ring (609-396-3083) and we just might be open! Hope to see you!
