That was my first job back in the early '90s. Good times, great memories. It was pretty amazing that they trusted some goofy sixteen-year-old to carry around several hundred dollars in cash to make change.
We had to sort all those tokens by hand to filter out the highway tokens and other random things people would try in the machines. It was a nice break in a back room, away from all the noise. I used to hear the games in my sleep.
When I worked there, Afterburner was on the 3rd floor, above the bowling center. Before they put in the bar and indoor driving range. The game got played frequently (it was rare for it to be empty of tokens). I wasn't very good at it, but I agree, fun to play!
