So whats the opinion on Twin Galaxies here?

@dankcushions I believe a few of his scores were acheived in public, but not normally.

Billy set up at a mortgage brokers convention and set a record live, but no one truly saw him play. He played in a backroom and the video from his cabinet was split to go to the next room.

My brother's a comic book artist and this weekend he's signing some of his books at a convention in North Carolina. People were just beginning to set up their booths this morning when a guy walked by who caught his eye. My brother pulled the guy aside and commented that he was without a doubt the best Billy Mitchell cosplayer he had ever seen. The guy responded by saying, "I hope so. I am Billy Mitchell". They talked for a while and then he began setting up his own booth a few tables down. Apparently he's there with his own 'Donkey Kong' cabinet, signing autographs and representing the red, white and blue like only he can.

@mediamogul That's pretty funny

He ended up trading two signed hot sauce bottles for a print my brother had done of Wonder Woman. They took a picture together and what's really funny is that I've seen pics of my brother with actual celebrities, completely unfazed and this might very well be the only time I've seen him with that funny, half-way embarrassed grin you get when you're a legitimate fan of someone. Meanwhile, Billy's shooting a thumbs up with a look meant to convey just how truly awesome it is to be Billy Mitchell on any given Saturday afternoon.

I've never heard of the guy..on the pictures with fans he reminds me of Buddy Christ (Dogma):

@mediamogul i had gotten 1 of only 10 autographed pac-man / rocky mountain pinball showdown habanero hot sauces in a raffle. I was moving and it fell out of a box and shattered all over the sidewalk. I also had an autographed poster too. No clue where that went. I got 2 king of kong dvd’s, a playing card and a donkey kong jr marquee autographed by steve weibe when i watched him get the kill screen in donkey kong at the 1up bard here in denver.

Very cool. Especially the live kill screen. I was thinking the other day that out of all these guys, I'd really like to meet Walter Day. He seems like a nice enough guy and I bet he's got some stories.

Some people would weep over the loss of such memorabilia. 😱

@mediamogul i would love to meet him. Dont know if there would ever be enough time for all the stories.

@edmaul69 I would like to meet him too. Also I would like to meet some of the twin galaxies officials and hear what happened behind the scenes.
