A 91-year-old woman who missed her daily check-in call got a surprise visit from police—and then police got a surprise of their own when they entered her home to discover that she hadn't fallen and was unable to get up, but was in fact just engrossed in videogames.

"We're with her now," one of the police officers dispatched to the home reported after finding the homeowner alive, well, and locked in. "She's playing videogames in her bedroom." And not just playing them, according to the breathless TV reporter, but "trying to beat her record level."

Go, Granny! Go, Granny!

It's kind of heartwarming to know all she was doing was keeping her mind busy.

I wonder what she was playing.

Probably wasting people in Call of Duty.

What else but Tetris?

I'm in my 40's, and genuinely fear losing my ability to play games well over the next couple of decades as age creeps in. I'm already struggling more on hard mode and switching to medium...

Don't fear, maybe you can rent-a-Grandma to beat your scores!
