For this week's installment in her weekly photo essay, Seattle People, Jenny Jimenez visited the Northwest Pinball and Gameroom Show at the Seattle Center. In the process, she inadvertently bumped shoulders with a few celebrities of the local gaming community, most notably Steve Wiebe, the Donkey Kong Junior record holder and star of the documentary The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters.. The man is still sharpening his skills! Check out Jenny's Seattle People photos every Tuesday. In the meantime, catch up on previous installments from Wallingford, White Center, and West Seattle.
