looking at every single movie and most of the time leaving with The Rock.

Man I used to spend SO MUCH time looking as well.

I also remember seeing a movie I may want, but there was only one left, so I would pick it up and walk around with it for 45 minutes so nobody could frick me out of renting it.

Used to rent an NES game every time I went and spent the night at one of my friend's house. We would almost always rent Black Bass on NES, and play it almost all night. For whatever reason, we fricking LOVED that game.

Also remember being at my buddy's camp on False River a lot of weekends, and we would always rent three movies. A scary one, a kiddy/cartoon one (for after we watched the scary one ), and then Revenge of the Nerds ( ). Our parents never had a clue..

Forgot about this:

Staring at the gaming section and deciding which game to rent based on how badass the cover looked

You always had to turn the box over and check out the graphics on the back. "LOOK AT HOW REAL IT LOOKS!!" Hahaa.



One of the biggest surprises I ever had renting a video game was Super Dodge Ball on NES. Me and my buddy figured we'd give it a try, and we had a blast and played that thing all damn night long. It was awesome.

Buddy and I had a similar experience with some game called Bubble Bobble. We rented it as a joke, and ended up loving it. Pretty sure he went out and even bought it a few weeks later.


I was never a "gamer" so maybe that game was popular. I don't know. We had never heard of it, and fell in love with it.
