born in yonkers ny in 73, i would always go with my older brothers to the arcade called adventures. the big thing in the early 80's seemed to be video arcade games and i can't lie, i was in to them too. but, everytime we went, the first place i always gravitated to was the row of about 4 to 6 pinball machines. like towering giants to a 7 to 8 year old kid. i was not good but was so amazed at that silver ball flying around. i remember playing playboy, an adult game, i had to try it. all the other games had such cool back glass art, how could you not want to put your money in them. fast forward, i now have 4 pins and would like to own 6 [ all i have room for]. what i have come to learn about this hobby as the most important thing, is not having the space for pins or the money [ as there are older pins one can get cheap or learn how to fix], it is having an understanding wife that respects your hobbies!!
