Loved the storytelling, man.

I worked for old Bobby for a few years and I wouldn't put it passed him. But he was genius at making his company blow up...

That explains why he is so overprotective with the rock a fire band

He says in the video that it wasn't his idea or invention. He basically helped fix someone else's invention. He doesn't deserve anything.

[@coastercrowd9054]

@@zippymufo9765 That is not necessarily true, Aaron still recreated the mechanism, recreated the creatures, came up with the name, and did what those men at the convention could not. He at least deserves the mainstream title of inventing the Whack-A-Mole.

[@zippymufo9765]

@@coastercrowd9054The owners of Whack A Mole offered to meet with him to discuss his claim and he never followed up on it. Sounds to me like it's a story with no proof behind it.

Siiigh. I hope he starts making Showbiz Pizzas again... with his own Whac-a-Moles.

[@isidora1299]

xXt0x1c-sl1m3Xx he quit ShowBiz pizza because they wanted to buy his character and do what ever they wanted with them and he didn’t want that

I've always been a Whac-A-Mole fan, and I was even thinking of buying one, but they turned out to be too expensive. Anyway, I have thinking about building my own Whac-A-Mole (an electronic one) for use as a sparring partner, and I just stumbled across this site. Talk about serendipity. What great find for a Whac-A-Mole fan. I hope i'm as lucky in finding plans for building one for myself.

Also didn't BOB "invent" the super six race car carnival game? I had the pleasure of fully restoring one of those as well...

Wow no thumbs down, Bob must not have seen this....lol

[@TheOfficialHelloKittyPowa]

There's a dislike now

[@hydrolisk1792]

I've always had a sneaky suspicion that you originally created that game. I got this suspicion when I had to fully restore several of them back in 2010 for an event company that I was running... I even said to my partner that " hey this looks a bit like the rock-afire explosion mechanics".

[@zippymufo9765]

He didn't create it 😂

Why does everyone want to steal from Aaron? (The Rock afire explosion, and now his Wack -a- mole?) What has Aaron ever done to them?

[@KatherineLiburd]

I didn't even kno what this name called till tonight. I was watching a boy beating some pipes in school and read he'll be better at whack-a-mole so I looked it up

[@murtza_6640]

There are lots of reasons. But that doesn’t make it right anyway.

[@rickochoa9745]

wow so he created wack a mole

[@zippymufo9765]

He didn't say he invented it

nope

Imagine how many other ideas (or prototypes) for games he probably stoled - Bob.
