My wife supports my pinball addiction, but does not like to play and complains often about the noise. I like to have my games turned up loud! So at least she's not jumping me about buying games and I consider that the best I can ask for.

Quoted from arcademojo:My daughters 12th birthday (sleepover) party. These girls are playing! Picture was taken earlier this evening. It's 11:30 and I need to get to sleep and there still playing. Keeping me up! That's a first for me to complain about pinball.
Awesome pic!!
I've got a few party pics from my kids as well, always fun to see a new generation enjoying these games.
I've also got a warlords cocktail that I usually run a double elimination tournament on for parties it's always a huge hit.

Where did you get the warlords cocktail? I used to love that game!

Quoted from Edenecho:Im so happy my wife supports me in this hobby, and also enjoys playing in tournaments
Though according to her response here I dont think Evel Knievel was a GC
Nice aggressive stance!

where is this place? great row of classics!
Quoted from Whysnow:where is this place? great row of classics!
Its in Borås, Sweden at a private location called Pinballseye: http://www.pinballseye.se/
Its awesome, and that is only one row. Lots of other classics and modern machines.
I believe the IFPA world championships was held there in 2015.
My wife always say's she "likes pinball", but I don't think she really likes it all that much. It feels more like a chore to get her to play. My daughters will always join me when I ask them to play; but my youngest, by 10 minutes (they are twins), defiantly enjoys it more then her sister. I'm still waiting for any of them to ask me if I'd like to play with them.

Same here.... My wife thinks pinball is a cool hobby, and brags and shows off the games, but rarely actually plays.
Quoted from Azmodeus:Me and my baby playing some pins at a frieinds the other day.
I would have died if Veronika wasn't there for me. If you ever meet me I almost guarantee she will be there. I have simply never seen anyone love someone so much in this world. I really don't even deserve it.
The best things in life are free......
Quoted from Azmodeus:I really don't even deserve it.
Sure you do, looks like you have a good one.

Any girl willing to play pinball is an A+ in my book!
Quoted from hlaj78:Scott, Is that your high school graduation picture?
Reported to mods. Rule #1: Be nice.
But since you seem interested, here is mine (I'm the one without fur):

Sir Scott I think you need to start a new thread on the high school photo thing. Fun stuff!
I don't think I had ever seen a pet in those pictures before. Well played!
Quoted from AlexSMendes:huh.... I'm missing the pictures with... GIRLS!
My mom is a girl. I think.
When I wrote my share of our wedding vows, I neglected to include the one about spousal pinball worship.
I'm convinced that that's why the love of my life is laughing so hard at our wedding and why she's still smiling, at age 49 (last photo), after 16 years of marriage.
Happy wife = happy life, as the adage goes.
Quoted from SirScott:I did one later with my mom.
these pics are the best. I love the look on the dogs face. Love the 80's laser show background as well.
All the time. She is on right flipper and I am on left. You would be suprised how good you can get if you both are synced together. Alcohol helps a little.
Quoted from dudah:Got some free labor the other week
Wow call the department of labor! You don't even supply her with a table to work on!
Quoted from dudah:Got some free labor the other week
Oh don't worry, it WILL cost you he he.
Quoted from galaga50:Whats up with the scoring??!!
She was making another drink and I was just plunging the ball to hurry her up "you missed another one".
