Looks like everyone is having a great time and that's a really nice set up you have there, very nice!!
Here it's a totally different story. Every year when it was our turn to have Xmas at our house the family would all come over and practically run to the basement to play all the games they could before they had to be dragged upstairs for dinner and presents. We'll I'm sad to say those days are long gone and it's old stuff now and nobody has any interest (other then myself) anymore and so the games sit in the dark awaiting the Annual 12 hour party in November.

Our 2nd annual family pinball tournament was a success. My brother in law finished first with my father second and my mother third. I was advised by my wife not to play and just run it so it would be fair. Tough to watch but glad everyone had a great time. And a big shout out to Dave at ULEK store for the great trophies again this year!

Good eye - that it is! We brought the slot car track out of storage earlier today and set it up for some 4-way holiday racing action.

Hello John
Your pictures are beautiful along with your collection. Sad story if you don’t mind me saying. I do understand it though. I am in a similar situation. I wish you a very Merry Christmas!

My wife said we can buy the stranger things pro so now just gotta find a local distributor. 
A few custom pinball gifts I made for some non pinhead family members...

The translites look a bit washed out in the photos, they look much more vibrant in person.
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Did anyone get a pin for xmas?
I did. A friend of mine was selling his Road Show, a game I've always LOVED but never really had a chance to play. I saw it and went nuts, showed it to my wife, she said no.
A week+ later my wife said, out of no where "Is that Road Show still for sale? If it is, I think you should buy it. Merry Christmas. That's your gift."
WWWWHHHHHAAAAAT?! I'M ON IT!
It'll be joining my family this weekend.
