Say ....what? Arcade game cabs on high school campus property? During my high school years at Los Al high school back in early 1980s, students had to cross Cerritos Ave southwards to get to Volcano Burgers just to be able to play any arcade video game such as when Volcano's had Frogger and a couple other cabs there. That's crazy that school district allowed an arcade cab to be on campus. It was fortunate during my time at high school they allowed various junk food items to be sold on campus. Arcade cabs....no way....the closest was a couple Apple II computers on campus and that was it.
Back then, the cooks and staff were either Serbian or Slovenian (formerly Yugoslovian territory) and it somewhat reminded me of Belushi's famous Saturday Night Live comedy sketch. Was not easy to order a plain hamburger from them back in those days. Had better luck when able to get french fries. :-)
