OT: All-time movie villain Billy Mitchell's high scores removed

Submitted by jimmyshi03 on

Not sure how many have seen King of Kong, but the antagonist/all-around prick Billy Mitchell has just had all of his high-scores removed at the arcade site Twin Galaxies, following an investigation into just how his scores were obtained.

The linked story goes into greater, perhaps unnecesarry detail, but suffice it to say, this seems like it's been a long time coming for one of the great real-life movie bad guys.

I'm so happy we have a King of Kong thread on here. I love that movie. 

Go eat your hot sauce Billy.

I have a friend who WOULD NOT STOP talking about that movie. I finally gave in and watched it. Good flick, as my dad used to say.

Reading the comments of many MGoReaders is often discouraging and sometimes even soul-crushing. We often come off as foul, pseudo-intellectual rubes. And then, invariably, some poster will prove he doesn't live in a cave. I am impressed so many here have seen King of Kong. Thank you for restoring my faith in this community.

Without looking, can you also name the cameos Steve Wiebe has made in other mainstream films since KoK?

(Oh, also, Billy Mitchell is just a patsy for the Twin Galaxies syndicate.)
