There used to be a crew of 5 of us that would head there every week and play whatever version of Street Fighter II or Street Fighter Alpha was out. We would have to fight whoever was on the machine to get them off so we could fight among ourselves. We would watch whoever was playing for one round than argue who would get the chance to take him down.

Online play if fun and all, but there's nothing like being right next to your opponent. You can use a cheesy move online now without recompense but that could get you punched in the arcade. Man I mess those days
