Arachnid Rep Helps in Houston Devastation from Hurricane Harvey

/in /by
Arachnid Rep, Deondre “Kidd” Cardenas, who lives in Houston, was one of the many who stepped up to help rescue people from their homes and take them to shelter.

One particular incident Kidd will remember was on Sunday, August 27, when he was out in a boat with other rescuers, he noticed an arm waving out of an attic. They used a chainsaw to cut a hole in the house and there was a little girl with her mother and father. Kidd pulled the little girl out and carried her to safety, and then her parents were helped to the boat.
Also helping was Star City Amusement, Roddy, who donated money for food for the rescuers. Elite Entertainment, Mike Brown, was on another boat in Dickerson helping people get out of their homes, and JD Rodriguez, from AVS, donated his time to the local Church by helping with the clean up and feeding people in the area.
Arachnid extends our sympathy to all the people suffering loss from Hurricane Harvey and the devastation that has affected the lives of many.

With Great Pleasure, Arachnid 360 Owners Announce New Promotions

/in /by

Arachnid 360 owners Tony Beall, Chris Beall, and Shawn Beall are pleased to announce the promotion of Sam Zammuto to President, Pat Rice to V.P. of Engineering and Innovation, and Mike Gannon to V.P. of Customer Service.

Sam Zammuto joined the Arachnid Sales and Promotion staff in 1982.  Through his direct help the first dart league was formed, he helped design the first soft-tip “Cricket” game, participated in the invention of automated communication, and started the BullShooter World Tour, which is now in its 31st year.  Sam is very well known and respected in the coin-op industry and has been very instrumental in the success and growth of darts around the world.  Tony Beall commented, “Through his supervision, Arachnid has prospered throughout the years and we look forward to our continued growth under his direction as President.”

Pat Rice joined Arachnid in 1992 in the Engineering Department.  He has been a driving force leading the engineering changes to Arachnid’s dart games.  This includes the innovation of the Galaxy II and  the Galaxy 3 Live, and also with Arachnid’s electronic shuffleboards–the Super Shuffle and DiscGlo Shuffle.  With his continued support as V.P. of Engineering and Innovation, his team continues to work to develop products to keep up with the future trend.

Mike Gannon joined Arachnid in 2002 as a Midwest Sales Representative and was later promoted to Sales / Customer Service Manager.  Prior to Arachnid, Mike already had 22 years of coin-op experience and had many industry acquaintances in the marketplace.  Arachnid feels fortunate to have Mike’s expertise in the coin-op industry, while he continues to lead a team of technicians as V.P. of Customer Service.

You can still access one site from the other and we are currently in the process of adding additional information to both sites to help make it an easier experience for Operators, Distributors, and the Players.

Arachnid Wins Prestigious Award

/in /by

Co-President, Sam Zammuto, recently accepted the “AMOA Innovator Award” for Arachnid’s new Galaxy 3 Live dart game at the AAMA/AMOA Amusement Expo. Sam Zammuto said, “Arachnid is proud and honored to be presented with the Innovator Award from the AMOA. The Galaxy 3 Live is the best dart game ever manufactured and truly a game changer for Operators.”

The new game offers two targets in one (13″ and 15″), remote play, tri-color LED illumination, built-in leagues and real-time statistics. “The response to the Galaxy 3 Live was overwhelming with hundreds of orders taken at the AMOA show,” said Sam Zammuto.

The AAMA/AMOA Amusement Expo took place March 14-16, 2012 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Exhibitors were up from last year totaling 378 booths compared to last year’s 341. The show seminar program included 12 informative sessions attracting over 500 people. Attendees and exhibitors expressed renewed optimism about the trade. Total attendance was approximately 3,000 according to show manager Brian Glasgow of W.T. Glasgow. “There is an energy level that is much greater than we have seen in year’s past,” said outgoing AMOA President Donovan Fremin, who tipped his hat to the quality level of the goods being shown on the exhibit floor. “Good product brings good people.”
