Ralph to get here and then he'll be focused on Ralph. Who's Ralph? You know, Retro Ralph, he's on the YouTube channel. He's famous. Never heard of him.

Would everyone here like to hear a story? Yes! Would you? Yes! Once upon a time at Pinball Expo In the year 2023, something miraculous happened.

In the distance, I heard a sound. Wreck-It Ralph, is that you? Thank you. All right, guys, we have 25 minutes to make this happen.

Thank you. Thank you Toasty! It hasn't given me one ball save. Not one. Oh, game over. Now get out! Is that good? Hold on.

Yeah, yeah, dude, that's good. What? Say what again? I dare you. I double dare you, mother... Oh, I got that ramp finally.

Hey, did you drive here? Yes. Oh, yeah. Not him. Not this guy. This guy's not driving. I don't even know why you have the camera out. I've proven time and time again that I am an excellent driver. And Ryan's calling. I don't know what he's calling for. I'm declining him. Where do I go?

Hello? Hey, tell Ralph to turn his lights on. Turn your lights on, Ralph. Excellent driver, my ass. It's a rental.

He didn't have any lights in the back? No. He said touch it in the back. What do you mean there's no lights in the back? All right, I don't know where I'm going, dude. That's the understatement of the year. It says merge on to Dwight Buzzenhauer. You're not filming right now, right?

Chiroma. Chiroma. I think Bob's voice is the soothing medicine that you need for driving, Ralph. You're driving so well tonight.

This is very rare, Bob. You were being a backseat driver last time. I was in the front seat. Whatever. Wait, where's 27A? I don't see A. I see B.

Oh, s***. We have the beast rolling in. I knew it would happen. Here we go. We're going down a one-way street. It's not a one-way. It's a one-way street.

Hi, welcome to Galloping Dump. Is this enough video games for you? Yeah! Can we play two players? Yeah. All right. We playing Kadash All right Ash

Alright, don't put me in a situation I don't want to be in. This is a lot of tapes, don't worry about it. If it doesn't go well, it doesn't go well. So that's the memory board. Yeah, right. Ah! They got me. I got you, Eric. Oh! What's with that? Come on! Son of a! Oh, I have no gun! Ah! That was me. Sorry. I'm feeling a little carpal tunnel-y right now. Oh my gosh, man. I'm getting annihilated. Do you know about the super move? I don't know, but this dude right here is whooping y'all's ass.

I hit enter name and it does that. I think your heat head is coming in. You guys want to go over to the pinball for a little bit? Yeah, okay.

Yes. You can actually work in an arcade. Yeah, it'd be nice. There he is. And you thought you were going to be able to go home. Yeah. What's going on, dude? Good seeing you again. What's up, dude? Good to see you again.

I personally believe that they're going to be great. They're going to be like family heirlooms. And this is special, like, from Bridget and from Rob. And thank you for all that you do. Thank you.

I have a favorite ask. Can you make a quick short somehow instead of getting it? I had no idea. Hey, are you cool if I make a short of you begging him to make a short of you getting it? No, yes. I don't want that. you see the true nature of a narcissist is someone who continually watches I need a day to film the internet. I thought that was free.

I don't expect pinball people to know who I am at all. Like, not even at all. Lie detector determined that was a lie. Can you have me languish your list on the bed with my cards?

The narcissist continues to watch himself over and over. I'm trying to check the quality. I'm not watching myself. Retro Ralph loves watching Retro Ralph. Retro Ralph's favorite channel, however, is Retro Ralph.

His favorite live channel is Retro Ralph Live, which doesn't go live very much. We don't go live anymore. It's dead. I'm not sure if they even use that channel anymore. But if they did, only one viewer watches. I really like this segment. I think you need to cut this out. The only person that continues to watch Retro Ralph Live is Retro Ralph. He is the 4,037th person to receive a Hall of Fame card. I believe they have less bottles of water in the building than they do Hall of Fame members.
