Open up that 40 oz. of Bawls and pour one out for Walter Day, who just this past week announced his intentions to retire as head of the gaming world’s official scorekeepers, Twin Galaxies. In an interview conducted by TG’s Josh Houslander, the regularly pinstripe-clad referee and musician took the time to not only spell out his future plans (he’s focusing on his music), but also detail the upcoming inauguration of the International Video Game Hall of Fame and Museum in Ottumwa, Iowa (a town in Iowa that’s vying for the title you see above).
“I like to dream big and shoot for the stars, and that’s what I’m doing now,” Day says in the lengthy video interview (found in full after the break). He says that he’ll be on hand for the inaugural ceremonies on August 5 – 8, but in the future, Day will be little more than an attendee at various Twin Galaxies events. Everyone here at Joystiq would like to wish Day the best in his future endeavors.
