Notable quotes
“I did something stupid and I don't care!”
“You want to look down at the flippers, then hit the flipper where you think it needs to engage in order to hit that target, then you look up after. If you look up too soon, you tend to hit it at the wrong time.”
“When you want to get something, you figure out a way to achieve that goal. It's weird. It's weird because I think there's other things in life that you wouldn't work as hard at, but when you're like, man, I want that machine...you somehow find it.”
“I will do anything. I will sell anything. I will move whatever machines I need to do to make this happen.”
“When Papa Rob calls, you pick up that phone.”
“I'm going to win this thing I'm winning it baby taking home the gold and probably not but hey wishful thinking”
