Was moving my Alien LE with that dolly that goes under the cabinet . Too top heavy before I knew it fell on top of me and causes a tibial knee fracture ! Don’t know if pinball machine ok, my wife said she doesn’t give a crap about any of the pinball machines and will lock downstairs so I can’t go there anymore. Luckily
My mother in law was home , she lifted the machine off my
Knee
Quoted from Concretehardt:Seriously? Your mother in law lifted the machine.. is she ok?
Just enough for me to get out. Now at hospital and need a cast... man ! And I have a baby coming Wednesday ! I think this event has forever sealed my futur with pinball .. my wife will get rid of them .. oh
Well .. maybe I can collect butterflies
Quoted from cosmokramer:I hope the Alien is ok...those are rare..
That’s the first question I asked when I came to after I lost conciousnness . My wife and mother in law wanted to slap me
We were supposed to go to P.F. Chang’s tonite.. well at least I don’t have to go now I hate P.F. Chang’s
Quoted from mrbillishere:OP - Just curious, what type of dolly, exactly were you using?
It sounds like a Penguin type, or was it a modded Harbor Freight?
Hope you heal up quick so you can help teach the baby basic pinball repair skills
It’s that dolly from eBay . I don’t think I’ll use it ever again .
Quoted from TheLaw:I'm pretty surprised the Alien didn't break into pieces actually.
I’m really not sure the condition it’s still laying on the ground can’t get to the basement With my knee like it is
Happy to report baby came last night 6lbs 13 oz. they were only expecting 5 lbs. and also my alien is fine ! Except one of the top lights is bent ever so slightly.. that can be replaced
Our water heater broke so I went downstairs to show plumber where it is . Crutch got stuck in carpet , took nose dive down 15 steps . Luckily other then Abrasions I’m alive . Do not , do not move pinballs by yourself. Just don’t do it !
Quoted from Wolfmarsh:Great news about Alien, and the Han Solo is badass.
How are you doing?
What a great community.. asking me about my leg.. you guys are great. My leg is fine thanks, more importantly .. my Monster Bash LE is on order.
