In the 80’s there was a time when people were addicted to Pac-Man. Everybody coined the name ‘Pac-Man Fever’ and over time a lot of people had addiction issues with the game. Problems arose when people started spending quarters after quarters on the game and some even stayed long nights at laundromats, donut shops, and 7-11s just to play the game. (sounds like WoW addiction now a days)

What better way to reach out to these sad people than shooting a celebrity public service announcement. Comedienne Lilly Tomlin talks about her Pac-Man Fever in the video and how she overcame the addiction of Pac-Man.

Just like what she said:

“It all starts with a harmless quarter.”

Also, here is the hit song by Buckner and Garcia.

Thanks to MediaBurn for the vintage video.
