I had a discussion with probably the best arcade player in my country. Had a yt channel with over 300 1cc replays and was also good at french billiard and darts, waging even his motorbike on occasions.
One time he was playing a mame cab and finished original ghosts and goblins.
Then after trying to relax, he noticed that some kids were watching him. Then one said that those games were for small kids and he was an ace in Call of Duty.
Then the guy pulled out a 50 euro note and told the kid "I'll give you 10 credits (5 euro). If you manage to finish the first stage of this game, the 50 euro note is yours''. He put it under the ashtray and kid started to play. He couldn't even maje it past the red gargoyle and when he managed to pass him on his final credit, he fell on the bridge and died as he had no clue what was next.
No money won and his friends were laughing at him when they left.
