That reminded me of going to Westlakes with my friends and playing the Ninja Turtles arcade game. As much as we played, we never got past the second stage (the one with BeBop as the end boss), so I guess we weren't very good at it

Yes I do...Town & Country Thrilla Gorilla, and Da Boys".

Isn't it funny us 80s kids fondly remember the MALLS?? The 80s were a great time economically. Our country today is so unstable.

Speaking of malls, I remember as a freshman my choir sang at the opening of Rivercenter mall in the lagoon area.
