"Steve Wiebe now rules as the Donkey Kong king after setting a new world record with more than 900,000 points in the classic video game...Finally last week, the Redmond resident broke an 879,200-point record set last year by a New York man, which edged past one set nearly 20 years ago by Billy Mitchell, a Florida man generally consider the Don of the Arcade Game. Mitchell's mark was 874,300.

 

Mitchell, 37, says he only counts his scores if they're played in a public venue, and he won't say if he can beat his cross-country competitor. He'll only say that he's planning something big and unprecedented in response to Wiebe's win. "

 

Kickass!! :D

 

Why is Billy Mitchell being such a punk about this?

Weird that CNN is only posting about it now since this happened (and we talked about it) nearly 10 days ago!
