I have found a new favorite sport.
Bargain video game hunting.
The last 3 Sundays in a row, I've played this game, first with Joe, then twice with Dave. The nature of the sport is, we drive around the greater Sacramento area, swinging by every game store in sight, finding rip-snorting good deals on games that are old enough to have Social Security payments coming in. It's like Supar Nerd Shopping Extreme, and it's fun as hell. The current record is myself and Dave on August 1, hitting up no less than 17 stores, with 3 others that had closed. All told, the quantity of game-age(I won't tell you, you hafta see it) FAR outweighs the quantity of spent monies(again, not gonna say). Bottom line: I have a new game to play with my free time at home, and damn is it fun.
