God. That does bring back memories.

Going back to the good old days when arcades were popular and actually a thing to watch other people and achieve things really brings back some fond memories.

Those tossing games however wasn’t something I was any good at.

Sounds like a nice way to relax with the drink you have.

I used to be terrible at those tossing type games too, but that all changed once I had kids. I have no idea why, but I have an idea that it's because you spend so much time picking random things up off the floor and tossing them into toy boxes, laundry and waste paper baskets that you just get good at it eventually lol! A wise person once said that a significant portion of parenting involves picking random things up off the floor and I can only agree.
