Info on Billy Mitchell found on Wikipedia:
William James Mitchell Jr. (born July 16, 1965) is an American video game player and restaurateur. He rose to national prominence in the 1980s when Life included him in a photo spread of game champions during the height of the golden age of arcade games.

On July 3, 1999, Mitchell achieved the first perfect score of 3,333,360 points on the original Pac-Man. David Ramsey, writing for the Oxford American in 2006, described Mitchell as "probably the greatest arcade video game player of all time". Twin Galaxies and Guinness World Records recognized Mitchell as the holder of several records on classic games, but in 2018 Twin Galaxies determined that two of Mitchell's previously accepted scores for Donkey Kong were invalid because they were not from an original Donkey Kong arcade circuit board. As a result, Twin Galaxies and Guinness World Records vacated all of Mitchell's previous scores and banned him from submitting future scores.

Mitchell has appeared in several documentaries on competitive gaming and retrogaming, including Chasing Ghosts: Beyond the Arcade (2007), The King of Arcades (2014), and Man vs Snake: The Long and Twisted Tale of Nibbler (2015). The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007) follows his attempts to maintain his high score on Donkey Kong after it was threatened by newcomer Steve Wiebe. A tape that Mitchell gave Twin Galaxies during the documentary's filming proved instrumental in the 2018 investigation into Mitchell's scores, with the team that led the investigation citing the DVD extras as crucial evidence.

Mitchell owns the Rickey's World Famous Restaurant chain based in Hollywood, Florida, and sells Rickey's World Famous Sauces.
