Not necessarily funny, but a really nice MK memory I have is of the first time I ever played UMK3. I have shared this on multiple boards. There use to be an arcade in a mall about 40 minutes from my house a lot of people went to, and when UMK3 arrived they put it in one of those big cabs with the controls extra wide apart and set a good distance from the screen with a 35" monitor behind glass, I don't remember what they are called. Anyway I was very familiar with MK3 by this time and I wanted to play UMK3 so badly. I was about 14 at the time and I had to wait usually extra long to play, but it was worth it. A large man of African descent was playing as Sektor, using cheesey teleport uppercut abuse and beating everyone. I was really shocked by this because this wouldn't even work at my local video store which had MK3. So I got to play, picked Scorpion, beyond easily defeated this guy who had at least 7 or 8 wins in a row as Suktor, and he had to step down because of me. The first combo I did was a counter to a teleport punch, I believe it was a simple HP, harpoon, 4 hit combo, and that memory is etched into my head specifically. I never left the machine beyond that 50 cents or whatever it was for the rest of the night until my mother came to me and said she wanted to go, at that point I beat a guy, and I guess the funny part was, I turned around to the kid behind me and said "Here take my game" and left.
