it should go without saying to anyone who knows my many, many opinions about driving that a prominent feature in my childhood was the video game Pole Position. i would scrounge quarters any way i possibly could, and would even willingly accompany my mom to her bowling night (which was très boring to a kid, as i was allowed to neither bowl nor drink bloody marys with the grownups) in order to gain access to the bowling alley’s arcade, which had a sit-down Pole Position which could entertain me for so long as the quarters held out.
