Your lucky..

I can see the headline. "man kills wife by droping arcade game on her".. Friends say "she always hated those games"... DA says she will seek death penalty..

I think my wife would have helped it fall off the dolly the rest of the way!

Wow! You had better give her a big thank you! Oh, and tell her thanks for all of us too. Maybe all of KLOV wives should hang around with her so she can teach them (she is a teacher after all).

Mod, you have one hell of woman there, going above and beyond to save the machine from a most certain disaster. You need to crawl through broken glass and spout every single compliment you can think of while crawling towards her, lol. If there was ever any doubt, that's proof of a solid marriage We all should be so lucky.

My wife nearly crushed herself with a Punch Out! once. She didn't realize that the upper monitor makes the game quite top heavy. Ended up with a couple of good bruises. She was helping unload a trailer of fix its (7 or 8 games) I was doing for a former employer. She took another one for the team while helping me move an entire arcade full of games (approximately 45 machines) while the bowling alley was having the arcade floor stripped and waxed. Only bruises that time too. Occasionally, she will help me bring one into or out of the house. You really need a second person when going up steps, hard to do by yourself.

*Hi-fives Mod's wife!*

I just hope this won't be a recurring "Oh, my wife fell down the stairs again" type thing...

Way to go! Give her a high-five!

Mine would require a trip to Tiffany's for such a heinous injury. *sigh*

She's helped me get a cocktail cabinet out of the back of the SUV, but that's the extent of her helping...unless you count getting fingerprints all over my nice clean machines...
