Quoted from barkerlake:I plan on making a trip to Denver this winter. I've heard some horror stories about 1-up, but still plan on trying out a few pins.
Anyone been to Arapahoe Bowling? Looks like they have a ton of pins I've never played..
There are 2 MUST visit places when in the Denver area.
#1 is Lyons Classic Arcade
#2 is PressPlay
just post up and see if you can catch a ride with a local pinballer. Lyons is well worth renting a car for the day. Period!
1 up also had (I was told they have since been replaced, but current reviews point to the same trend)some legitimate meat head bartenders with major anger issues. I have told the story before but 1 of them jumped the bar to try and choke out my brother (one of the nicest guys you would ever meet) because he did not tip on his second beer.
We checked out online reviews and it seems to happen enough that others have posted about similar experiences.
Just keep on your toes if you do go their. I suggest not drinking or even interacting with the bar staff. Seriously, they have/had issues and it is just not worth it, esp when there are better places to go with better staff.
Quoted from Gryszzz:Won't make the lodo daytime but will def be at Colfax tamaree night. Hope to see yons! Place is huge now and I probably won't play one vid unless they have Journey. Could somebody tell Matty to show up (if he's not barred lol)...I lost his #.
you NEED to get up to Lyons Classic Pinball!!!!
Seriously the home of what created so much other pinball on location!
It is not to be missed and aside form the history, Kevin is one of the nicest guys ever and the place is amazing quality and diversity of games!
Quoted from Gryszzz:the bouncers last time were some fucksticks
you are not the only one to have dealt with those hats...

Quoted from Mr68:Ugh, ... while putting myself through college, I worked the door in a popular nightclub. It's easy to develop a hardness toward drunk people when dealing with them night after night. Even some sober people can be irritating to deal with. (Imagine a whiny Pinsider you've encountered here, in your face drunk or sober)
saw it in person at expo a few years ago. It was pathetic and sad in many ways.
The dude at 1up that screwed with my brother were meat heads looking to specifically be jerks. He was neither drunk nor a jerk.
They have a rep of being asshats.
