Here's The Infamous Battletoads Level That Andrew Mason Mentioned In His Groupon Farewell Letter

Andrew Mason is out as CEO of Groupon.

In his charming farewell letter to employees, he mentions Battletoads, a video game for the NES back in the day.

"If Groupon was Battletoads, it would be like I made it all the way to the Terra Tubes without dying on my first ever play through," wrote Mason.

If you have no clue what that means, here's a video of someone trying to beat the Terra Tubes level. The level is littered with traps, so the key is to slow down and play smart — except when you're being chased by the spinning death-blades of destruction.
