Thank you. Oh, come on, sir. Come on. Get in there. Get in there. There we go. Hopefully we can get a multiball going here. All right, what do we need here? Music is catchy, I mean come on. There it is. A couple more multi balls, gotta get one more ball in there. Gotta choose one of those. Oh, there we go. Feels like a nice multiball going here. Take a four ball. Cool live show here. Shakes around like Starcast Metallica. And here they come. All right. Didn't last very long, guys. All right, ramp is free. Go back and settle. Whoa. That was a laser. Make sure I turn it up. Get down. I'm going to shoot to the head of the chute, even if the ball isn't there. I don't know the lock. All right now. So a good ball one, that was a shitty ball two. All right, where we at? I gotta get my extra ball. Extra balls in that left scoop over there. Oh, brick. Try it again There it is I love that ball. Where am I supposed to drill here? The male of it? Not there. That's not where I'm supposed to go. Alright, that's the ball. He just come to the front, he'd meet him. Oh, that wasn't... Uh-oh, we're in trouble. We're in trouble. I love that effect. Look at that. Bam. I wish we could add a ball. I wish we could add a ball. We've got to be able to add a ball. Well, that sucked. Sorry, guys, that blew up. I don't really know the rules of what I'm doing, but it's fun to shoot. That is just killer kick-ass. All right, where am I going here? It acts like I need to go to toys or elevator, select a track. Spinner sounds cool. There we go change our track now This is what it looks like Oh man All right, here we go. Whoo! Whoo! All right, Jack. Man, that right rim, baby. Give him backhand that lock, son. There we go. This is called a boat show. Ah, one more ball. We have 20 minutes yet. I have a couple of really short games and this one lasts a little bit. Alright, so it won't let me go walk this way or back in the saddle, so I guess I completely does. Oh don't do that, so I guess it's similar to the kick out and start track throw, save your ball without having an actual physical point. Alright, flail. Flail fest. Well, that's a quick win. Pretty cool game, guys. I want to own one. It's the best thing to talk to, that you feel Such a young, young, young woman And you're a virgin, and we're all the same It was a big, big, big time And we're all the same All the best things love to do And we're all the same
