When I was a child, my mom was on a bowling legue. So I was given money to go play games while she bowled. There were quit a few pins there that I remember. Later in life a person who had come into my life by means of (my X- girlfriend), had a space station one I remember as a child. Since then i told myself I would own one or two. I now own space station my girlfriend loves pinball as much as i do. So it has become a must have in the home. And it is true I am now hooked and want more. :)
