"The Frogger" error?

No biggie...

When Jerry notices the "GLC" high score, George says, "I can't believe it's still standing! No one's beaten me in like ten years!" But wasn't Mario's Pizza their high school hang-out? And George and Jerry are how old...?

-B.

Yeah, but I've always assumed that they continued to go back to Mario's after high school for quite a while. But you could be right. It could be an error. I doubt it though.

And doesn't it seem odd that in all those years there was never a power outage where his score could have been deleted? Hmmmm.......

And have you noticed how slow the traffic is moving when George attempts to move the Frogger to the other side of the street?

to move

The truck that crashes into it is going fast enough to destroy the thing, tho :)

Then that's an error in this episode, isn't it? Didn't Kramer arrange a power supply so the highscore wouldn't be lost while transporting it? (I could be wrong, it's been a while since I last saw this episode)

LOL, I wouldn't rely on Kramer for good technical advice on *anything*. And that's kind of an unintended irony with the Frogger episode: the machine was destroyed becuase George was hurrying to get it to a power source, yet his score would've been saved anyway.

On a related issue, how did these "electricians" keep power to the unit during the time between it was unplugged from the wall and plugged into the backup power supply?

true ;)

I'm pretty sure they had a plan for that. Could it be something like connecting it to the backup before disconnecting it from the wall or something? I remember something like that, but again: long time ago.

I have the original Frogger, Galaga, Pac-Man, and Tempest games. You can unplug them and not lose the names and scores.

I think the remarkable thing is that no one beat George's score in all those years. I know George claimed it was one of those magic moments when he got high score but George isn't known for his manual dexterity. He can't open a condom or a bag of chips, yet he excels at Frogger? Maybe no one ever went to Mario's.

That night at Mario's George had the right amount of grease on his joy stick.

When they went back, they found that Mario's was closing 'because' no one went there.

Sounds like an old Yogi Berra line. . . . Nobody goes to Toots Shore's anymore; It's too crowded.

I can't see why not, since the customer service is excellent... ;-)

Seinfeld has other problems with electricity.

In the 'slicer' episode Kramer blows fuse in hall to kill power to radio in apartment. Those outlets would be on separate circuits.

In 'hot tub' episode Kramer's heat pump kills all curcuits in bulding. Not likely! Again separate circuits.

In the 'frogger' the guys are playing the game outside the store from battery power. The screen requires high voltage. . 12,000 volts?? And it has to be AC not DC. I suppose you could have an inverter running off the battery,

Don't call "Seinfeld Electricial" for service.

George isn't known for his manual dexterity. He can't open a condom or a

or make a pot of spaghetti...:-) Remember?

<<That's how it went. I always thought it ws an error but figured they'd be smarter than that.

"Smart" & "Season Nine Scripts" Name two phrases that don't really go together.
