As a college student in Tennessee, Jon Yarbrough struck a deal with a local arcade: He’d lend the place his foosball table, and they’d split the revenue 50-50. People lined up to play. Yarbrough, who also interned at NASA while in college, doubled down after graduating, buying more foosball tables as well as pinball machines and putting them in other arcades. He then started creating his own video games and sold them largely to tribal casinos. As those casinos proliferated, revenues grew at his company, Video Gaming Technologies.
