Scout Bevans (joking)
“What I found is that people who tune into competitive pinball for the first time, even people who know nothing about competitive pinball, if they like solid competition, if they like gaming at all, and even folks who are kind of into sports, like who kind of want to just see what this thing is about, once they once they watch competitive pinball, they fall in love.”
