Vacationing up at Traverse City, MI this week at the Grand Beach Resort and checked out their gameroom. To my surprise a Congo was tucked in the corner. It had a nice cabinet and playfield was a bit dirty but, looked decent overall. Played fine except for the capture hole was not detecting the ball so, the ball find would have to kick it out. I always want to fix these things when I see them. I'd love to get some games on it fully working.

Very cool. There is nothing better than randomly finding a pin in the wild, particularly a rare one like Congo.

Make sure you add it to the pin map.

Pardon the pun, but funny that you found a pin with a theme like Congo in the 'wild'

Heh - anybody? anybody?

Yeah, it was pretty bad.

I was just up there this past weekend & would have loved to have known Congo was loose. I investigated a few leads (Hook in the gameroom at Best Western), but came up pretty much empty. Add it to the map!
