    Couple questions about the old Ballys, first how boring are they and can they be taken apart to move? It would be next to impossible to get this to my basement in one piece.

    The horse race games are not boring, in my opinion. It's a different thrill than a flipper pinball game or a bingo, since you only have one shot to make your number.

    I give a nice break down of how to transport in this thread, and a brief description of gameplay:

    Basically, you take the glass/siderail/lockbar off, remove the playfield, take the middle board (with all the machanics) out, and remove the backbox, and then reassemble in the truck. The cabinet is still a challenge since it is a floor-length cabinet.
