The Elvira Bug!

Back in 1989 my then girlfriend, and now wife, would head on down to the local 7-11 for a soda and some pinball. We would play EATPM for hours or until the quarters ran out, whichever came first. I'd put my arm around her and take the left flipper, she the right. It was always one of my fondest teenage memories. As a young man this pin would leave a deep impression on me and become very sentimental. Although a Cyclone replaced Elvira shortly thereafter, which leads me to say that was one hell of a 7-11, I always dreampt of someday having the means to acquire an Elvira. That has happened in the last year as well as getting my hands on a few others.  EATPM will always be our #1. Thanks for reading my story about this really amazing pin.

    That's such a cool story with you and your wife at the 7-11! Each using a flipper! Awww..
    The only time my wife touches my pinball is to unplug it and tell me to goto bed! LOL!
