Kids waiting at the orthodontist play Galaga, guests at the Breakers run from digital ghosts, and Rick Ross is gaming at home, thanks to Robert Childs.
The owner of Fort Lauderdale's Arcade Game Sales, Childs holds the second highest score in Tempest, according to Twin Galaxies, in the world. Close friend Steve Kleisath, drummer of Further Seems Forever, is also a successful gamer. He has the skills to rank as the second highest scoring player of Ms. Pac Man in the world. In the world! We sat down with the pair to talk about Childs' famous clientele and their oddly unique Retro Arcade Night.
