Strider

True story.

Back in 1996, I was living in Tamworth NSW. There, just off the main street was a flight of stairs. Up those stairs was a pool hall. And in that pool hall was a small arcade, with about ten machines. Each had a sign – ‘Beat the all-time highscore, win a can of Coke‘.

Tiger Heli?  “CSSSSSH” (that’s the sound of a can of Coke opening)

Strider?        Nope.
Try again.     Nope.
Try again.     Nope.
Try again.     Nope.
Try again.     Nope.
Try again.     Nope.
Try again.     Nope.
Try again.     “CSSSSSH”

Boy did that Coke taste good.
