Megan Morrone Wore an Atari Shirt on TechTV. It Changed My Life.
Summary
Back in the late 90s and early 2000s, I was a young web developer who loved tuning into The Screen Savers on TechTV every day. My friend and I had built one of the first Atari emulator websites on the internet, called Atariland, so you can imagine my excitement when I noticed the show’s producer, Megan Morrone, wearing an Atari logo shirt on the air one day. I just had to reach out. What followed was a whirlwind of activity - Megan featured the Stella Atari 2600 emulator as her Download of the Day, and my servers were slammed with thousands of new members overnight. I made multiple trips to the TechTV studio in San Francisco, and the relationships I built with that amazing fan community have lasted over 20 years. That one small moment of Megan wearing an Atari shirt on TV ended up changing the trajectory of my life in so many unexpected ways. It just goes to show how the smallest things can have a huge impact.
