Notable quotes
“Fuck you, George Hudson.”
“It's not a bug, it's a feature. This is how good I was playing. Now you're going to take away from me because I'm playing better than everybody?”
“Sam Stern, like working at Stern and having a meeting, first off, I'm rubbing my face right now. I'm like, I just want to apologize to the group for having this fucking whole March Madness idea.”
“That is a true LE. You know you got an LE when even American Pinball is like, maybe we'll let you do it.”
“They're going to try and use it as an upsell on the classics is what you're thinking.”
