Don't know much about Pac Man. So I intentionally tried to go 0/14. Still got 4. But the quiz asks if I can get the high score. My answer is NO. And that is the correct answer.
9/14
I was not a video game enthusiast, and have never played pacman, although I am familiar with some of the elements. But that last question, with Marty Ingles, really brought back memories. I really liked him, and of course I immediately recognized Laura's kitchen.
Marty Ingles was in a show in the early '60s called "I'm Dickens, He's Fenster" with John Astin. Only lasted a season, but for some reason I loved that show.
Not sure I could even remember the specifics of any episodes, but it just used to crack me up.
