JaCkPoT!!!

Last weekend Burk and Papa Joe bowled in the State Bowling Tournament. Sheryl, Porter, and I went down on Saturday night with them to watch the team event. It was a long night, but lucky for Sheryl and I the people watching was at its BEST!! But the highlight of the night was in the arcade. Our friend Jeff (who always fills Porters pockets with money at bowling) and Boggy each gave Porter a dollar to spend in the arcade. He got his tokens and played a little ski ball where he got one ticket. Punched a clown for another eight and Boggy found one on the floor so he was up to 10. And then he decided to put one token in this game where you have to try to blow up a balloon by pushing the button to stop the air, when it pops you get how ever many tickets its on. But by some miraculous stroke of luck Porter dropped in the coin and hit the button when the little pointer was on a space that was honestly a centimeter wide, if that. It was the instant inflate and pop button! Boggy starts saying he did it, he did it, and the machine starts shooting out tickets. Porter was laughing and squealed with excitement. It was pretty cool. The kid working in there said I have never done that, I cant believe he did that. He ended up with a flying saucer thing that was 175 tickets and three GI Joe guys that were 4 tickets each. Those were his favorite. Of Coarse!! Anyhow it was a pretty fun thing. Thanks Jeff and Boggy.

I wish I could have seen that happen. It would have been worth the price of admission to the tourney.
