    Now for a little bit of fun... I tracked down the basketball simulation game in
    BASIC, and ran tonight's National Championship game between Texas Tech and Virginia. At the end of the game, I took a screenshot of the final results as played by VICE. Take
    a look. https://1drv.ms/u/s!Aj9V_5x2ju0XoNZPimYihpBEV0qXvw

    Nice. Am not a basketball fan so don't know any teams. But were the
    results close to any real match?

    Did you use real hardware or emulated the Commodore 64?

    Well, looks like the actual result on April 8th was 85-77 for
    Virginia. The simulation result was 89-66 so fairly close.
