    With all the negativity that we're surrounded by in our lives and even a lot of the moaning we do right here on Pinside, (I'm guilty of it at times too) I thought that it would be nice to have a thread dedicated to ONLY positive stories. Times where you did something kind in the name of pinball.

    I'll start it off...

    I recently stopped by a local bowling alley over my lunch to play a few games. They have a modest arcade with 3 pins that get switched up every few months.

    There was an elementary school on a day trip, and some of the kids that had finished bowling were just hanging out in the arcade. I was there playing a little T2, and a couple of kids stood at my side watching in amazement (which is funny, because I was really stinking it up bad!).

    I finished my game and had one credit left. I turned to the kids and said "there's one game left, you guys can have it".

    AS I was walking out I noticed a swarm of kids were now standing around watching this kid play. I walked back in, put coins in the other two machines and announced "they're all going now, just make sure you share it".

    That simple gesture put a huge smile on their faces, and probably gave most of them their first try at pinball.

    Keep the stories coming, or feel inspired today to create one of your own

    Let's get this back on track.

    If you have a story about doing some good in the name of pinball, be sure to share it.

    Peace to all
