Having Fun At The Arcade In Ocean City

Every year we spend some time blowing some money in the arcade in Ocean City, Maryland. It is amazing how your view of the arcade changes as you get older. I do have some fun playing skee ball though. I am no wizard as the title of the post suggests. One of our days last year at the arcade we saw a guy who had a system down to where he could roll nothing but hundo’s (beach lingo for 100’s. He had a pile of tickets to prove it. When you keep running the machine out of tickets you are officially a skee ball wizard.

Hitting the Jackpot

I saw that we blew money in the arcade, but thanks to my step-daughter last year we actually came out ahead. This isn’t like Vegas where everyone says that they came out ahead when they leave. We actually did pretty well. The reason we did so well was my step-daughter kept hitting jackpots. A little luck and skill led to a good time at the arcade. That jackpot money was probably all spent at the Candy Kitchen next door though. You can’t win them all.
