Nasty find inside of a Gorf...

[ceckitti]

Picked up a Gorf upright last weekend. the guy said it was in his garage for years, but the way the cabinet looked...i would guess barn.

Anyway, the guy was in a real hurry to get it out, and it was free so i didnt inspect it when i picked it up. Threw it on the truck and took it home.

Get home, pry open the back door (all doors locked with no keys), and i find a little surprise inside....

Def. takes the prize for my nastiest find inside a game cabinet.

And before anyone asks...i stripped all salvageable parts from the cabinet and took it straight to the dumpster.


BTW...the game actually powered up and played! LOL

Thats pretty nasty..........

Damn that would have made an excellent cat cabinet.

Whats crazy is that outside of the "creature" that hung itself in the wire harness, and the mildewed cabinet...everything else it it was pretty damn nice LOL.

Marquee and glass are choice, monitor has a sweet picture, and the boards and power supply work 100%. I used the power supply to get my cocktail working.

Is that a cat?

I was wondering the same thing... it's hard to tell exactly what creature that was, other than a huge clump of matted fur.

I found two dead mice inside my Mousetrap (yeah I know) when I got it home. One was dried out but intact, the second was in the same dried condition, but all the fur and and flesh was stripped from it's skull, and only it's skull. The rest of it's body was intact. It was truly freaky.

I'm so glad I haven't found any dead animals in any cabs I've picked up. The worst I've had is rodent droppings and spiders. I definitely make it a point to look inside the cab before putting it in my SUV.

I think there was an even more disgusting post a while back concerning maggots or something. That has to be the worse. Though, thankfully, the pictures on the post were no longer linked.

You found a dead 80's hair band member?

The worst thing I found was a rat/mouse next in my Centipede marquee area. I realized the marquee light was the reason the GFI was tripping every time I powered the machine up so I took a look at the marquee light and found the "bonus" included with the machine. A little Killz action makes the thing still usable. It's a shame in a way because all serial numbers match and everything.

That's exactly how we find the dead ones in our upstairs closets.

I wonder if mouse poison (D-CON) has anything to do with it...

What's worse this or a big dildo?

 

[pookdolie]

what's worse - a fake cock or a dead pussy?

fyp........

It's a Tribble!

Anybody else smell Chinese food?

 

[ComputerSpace]

What the heck was that???

 

[trickman]

I was wondering where the rest of my hair went.

 

[ceckitti]

I asked several people what they thought it was and the common answer seemed to be racoon. I myself have never seen a brown and black stripped racoon. I thought maybe it was a cat.

My next question was...HOW? LOL. The game was closed up, with no holes or cracks anywhere. Thats what makes me believe it was a cat. Im guessing it was in the guys house or shop that he owned, he had the coin door or back door off for whatever reason, and maybe his pet cat climbed in when he wasnt looking. Whatever it was...it was "part" of the harness. So i think it got its head stuck in it, and either broke its neck struggling, or just gave up and layed there and starved. Kinda morbid either way. But he def was there there for quite some time, it was hard as a rock. And it must have got pretty hot in the garage because the corpse seemed to have "melted" down the inside of the cabinet. I cant imagine what the smell was like.

Now...who wants chowda?? ;-)
