jackpot!

Have you ever spent hours at a game at the arcade hoping to win the jackpot? Have you ever had your sister walk up to the same machine and win 300+ tickets? Have your parents ever told you 'some day....some day' and you didn't believe them?

Well this is for all you non believers... Last weekend we went to John's Amazing Pizza (aka....get out your wallets mom and dad and SPEND!!!!). which is like Chuck E Cheese on crack. They have 4 buffet places and six themed rooms for dining...stop there you might say....but no...there is also the largest arcade arena you have ever seen and amusement park rides like the Twister (which I refuse to go on ever since 7th grade when I threw up on the Octopus at Oaks Park. No Bueno). So yeah...it's like Chuck E Cheeses gone mad.

Well last weekend the stars aligned just right for Will and things fell into place and he stepped up to his favorite game and in 3 tries he hit the JACKPOT! The look on the kids' face was amazing....it was like shock, awe, surprise, redemption, coolness, all those wrapped up in one. And then he did what every good winner does, be took a victory lap. Right there in Chuck E Cheese on crack he took a lap running. He was smokin' thrilled. And then he watched 450 some odd tickets get added to his magic card. And that folks is why you should never stop believing...just like Journey told us.
