There's something addicting about Skee-Ball and trying to get a perfect score on it, which I'm pretty sure I never did. I always went for the highest scoring holes though, partly because I didn't care about getting tickets from the machine to exchange for stuff at the counter. If that was my goal, I could've gotten higher scores and more tickets by playing a bit more conservatively, but I was always "go big or go home" with Skee-Ball. It always felt very satisfying landing a ball in the 50 point hole and especially the 100 point hole for the ones that had those. Apparently, Skee-Ball is still alive and well. For some reason, I figured this was something that had gone by the wayside since arcades have largely become defunct. I guess I've just been living in the wrong places because I can't remember the last time I even saw a Skee-Ball game. However, I have learned that there is a skeeball.com where you can buy your own Skee-Ball machine for your home, for the low, low price of $6000! What a deal! Plus, you don't even have to insert coins to play this version, so it basically pays for itself after several thousand games! Wow!
