I agree with the OP. Allentown is ruined. I wish it was more like the professionally run Ohio show where they have 26 machines and few vendors. There are no lines. Awesome show. /Sarcasm

Quoted from Blackbeard:However, I somehow coined up a 4 player game on Transporter at the show.
I was "given" World Poker Tour started up for 4 players when I was the only one waiting ... I frigging hate when something like that happens. Fortunately, the only person that waited to play understood the situation while I was draining .
The other thing is when you go to a machine and discover someone left in the middle of the game ... you try and drain the remaining balls quickly so that you can play a full game, but then someone comes up and waits to play .
Other than that, the show was awesome. I didn't have to make the 4 1/2 hour drive home due to lines or whatever I'm supposed to be all angry about!
Quoted from RatShack:A lot of games you can start a new game by holding in the start button if it's on ball 2 or 3.
I have been in this habit for over 20 years now and never knew that !!!! Thanks for the heads up !
"The easier way is to just reboot the game. Power switch under/near left front leg of game."
True, but I hate power cycling other people's games. I couldn't care less if it were mine, but some people get upset about that.
Quoted from rollinover:More people should come to the Ohio show
No lines and needs to be built back up
You won’t have any issues getting in lol
I have no idea why that show became a turd. It's at a decent location and is near some of the towns/cities with loads of collectors. I first went around 2011 IIRC (may have been a bit later). It was awesome. It slowly went downhill. Last year was terrible, and this year was only marginally better.
I'll only go back if Mr. Dayhuff is there with his parts .
