Recently, I had a chance to drive up to Chicago from Wichita to compete in an MK tournament at the Galloping Ghost Arcade which featured the original arcade machines. Normally, it wouldn't be worth the trip for me, but this particular event was being visited by some of the original actors from the MK series (Daniel Pesina, John Parrish, Dr. Phillip Ahn, and John Vogel [background designer for all 4 MK arcades and beyond]).
I couldn't pass this chance up. So I made the drive with items in tow for some autographs. As far as the tournament goes, I won the UMK3 one, placed 2nd in MK1 and 3rd in MK2. Here is a video of my UMK3 victory...(First part is my qualifying matches (best 2/3) 00:00 - 2:23 I am Player 1. The second part is the semi final matchup (best 2/3) 2:24 - 5:21 I am Player 2. Final matchup (best 4/5) 5:40 - 11:03 I am Player 1.)
Here are some other videos that night of the actors competing/playing some MK...
Now as for my signed items, here they are...
