We were going for the 500 ticket roll on Tons of Tickets and it looked promising, picked it up TWICEโ€ฆ and dropped it both times ๐Ÿ˜ญ

The claw gets stuck and doesnโ€™t even close

No tickets. No mercy. Just arcade pain ๐Ÿ’€

I set up both sides of the Guardians of the Galaxy train game so the next players only needed one large target bucket to win!
