We made plans to stop in to play some pins without the kids tonight after eating at the casino. It was really nice to be able to concentrate on playing, rather than keeping on eye on the kids.
We spent $50 for dinner, then gambled another $60, which we lost in about 15 minutes (seriously).
Then we stopped in to see Chris.
Paid my $30 for 2 people, and had a muuuuuch better time than at the casino. Wayyyyy more worth the money than the casino was...by far.
2 other couples were there playing as well, and Chris gave us all an impromptu tournament of split flipper (one person plays the left flipper, another person plays the right), and we mixed up the pairingd throughout. What a blast!
The last game was back to the original pairing (husband/wife or bf/gf) and was for the big prize, 2 free admissions to the winner.
And guess who won? Yup, me and my gf.
Chris made us feel like friends, knew his stuff about every ruleset, the ins and outs of each machine.
I repair machines on the side, as I'm sure most of you guys do too, and when I pointed out a small problem, he didn;t take offense, and was quick to fix it.
If you're in the neighborhood, please stop in and get your pin on!
