Just imagine all the tickets he got

Probably like.. 12. 19 tops. Those things were stingy with their tickets.

Actually, this is the worst way to get tickets.

The best way is to go early in the morning, when the machine is first powered on. The "top score" will be at the lowest point (factory default setting).

Then what you want to do, is beat the top-score, by 1 ball THEN LET THE TIME RUN OUT. You'll receive the "jackpot" for setting a new high score.

Then play a second time, and beat your previous high score by 1 ball again, and stop playing again. You've now won the jackpot twice.

Keep doing this. The problem with going all-out on your first try, is that you'll set the high score to your skill limit. From that point on, you can only really hope to tie. You'll only get one Jackpot. By beating the score by just one ball each time, it's easier to get the jackpot multiple times in a row...

Did any of you bother look at the scoreboard?!

I worked at Dave and Buster's repairing the games when I was 18 years old. After about six months this is how good I was at super shot (the name of that basketball game). I would put up the high score every day I worked. I'm completely terrible at basketball outside of this.

Can't believe I didn't think of this trick.

Someone please make this a downvote gif for all that is holy

zVulture · 2012-09-02T00:01:53+00:00

This needs to be made into an upvote or downvote GIF, if only I had the time...

MyOtherNameWasBetter · 2012-09-01T21:28:41+00:00

How many balls are in that machine?

TheBigBanger · 2012-09-02T00:58:06+00:00

The computer in these games doesnt recognize every ball going in that quickly. Watch the score vs the balls going in... it rises about 1/2 as fast.

I saw this guy go head to head with Kobe Bryant on Jimmy Kimmel a while back.

I love how seemlessly this .GIF is looped.

KiNGofKiNG89 · 2012-09-02T04:28:17+00:00

I saw somebody do this once, I sat there for like 10 minutes as he played it 3-4 times. He kept only beating his high score by 1 basket. Boatload of tickets! He got like 500? for every time he beat the high score.

SatchmoPhipps · 2012-09-02T05:17:06+00:00

Seeing as I've had this gif open for a while, and under the right conditions I could have it open for all of eternity, I'm gonna guess: infinite. He got, theoretically, an infinite number of tickets.

peesinpools · 2012-09-02T06:02:03+00:00

I can't believe he's still going.

jdogdeluxe · 2012-09-02T06:37:01+00:00

I like how it's sped up.....

xBlackbiird · 2012-09-02T00:22:01-07:00

And some say he is still going to this day.

keiserchan · 2012-09-02T08:34:05+00:00

It's bastards like this that crush my hopes of ever having the high score on anything.

wallieburger · 2012-09-02T10:11:18+00:00

probably enough to buy a pencil top.

Grizmeer · 2012-09-02T14:46:54+00:00

Those machines don't have enough basketballs to do this.

Stoneheng3 · 2012-09-02T00:37:28+00:00

The longer you watch, the more tickets he gets
