Stern Meteor is never going anywhere unless someone wants to offer me enough to buy three of them. I love this game and in a weird way I feel like it is a part of me. This game holds all that pinball means to me, the passion, the personality. It's where I discovered my love of early SS machines and opened a door to a wonderful hobby. So. Yeah. Meteor is bolted to the floor.
Quoted from rollitover:Classic Stern Big Game was my first.
Never played one before
but went ahead and bought it.
Easy decision really, it had it all:
drops, pops and shots
AND three spinners!
So glad I bought it instead of passing
and no...will never sell.
After me my son gets it and he too has called it a keeper.
I only count two spinners on Big Game. Did you MOD it?
Quoted from Blackbeard:Gorgar was my cherry.
Used her. Sold her. Miss her.
Sorry to tell you but Gorgar is a dude. Your first was a dude. That's OK though, he might now be Gorgina in this day and age. 
Quoted from flashinstinct:I had to sell mine when my daughter was born. She had severe complications and had to get surgery 7 days after birth. While we did have insurance, the formula that she was on was not covered, even though it was the only thing that she could take to live (go figure). At a whopping $2100 a month, the choice was simple really... Sell Whitewater and give my daughter 1.5 months of formula. She required formula for 13 months. While I would like to get that pin again, I associate too much with a time in my life where legal papers had to be signed that cleared the hospital from death during surgery and the million wires that my daughter was plugged into while in the ICU for 1.5 months. 6 years later, this kid is just a ball of energy.

Adorable! My daughter will be 7 in December and had RSV when she was two months old. It was a scary time. She was in ICU for almost 3 weeks and it was real touch and go for the first one. I can't believe how quickly they grow up! My daughter does the ballet, tap, and jazz thing too. Loves it! Take care of that kid, that is the primary reason we are on this Earth and play some pinball!
