    Nothing too exciting, but work had me in Vegas for 48 hours, so I had the opportunity to make it back to the Hall of Fame. Was great to make it out, and I had a few really good games.

    Overall the machines seemed to be in much better condition than the last time I was out two years back. Seemed like there were 2 techs beyond Tim there. Tim was busy emptying out the cash machines and chasing after a kid who insisted on running everywhere.

    So here are a few pictures...

    Felt like I was home when I saw a Xenon and Pin2k sitting waiting for love...

    Sat for a bit and looked at the back of some of the machines. Creative replacement backbox covers....

    One thing that was new is that it looks like ColorDMD hooked up the ENTIRE place. Every ColorDMD compatible game had one!

    Unfortunately BH was down.

    But HH was pretty consistently busy

    Had a pretty good game on IJ. It was the #4 score, but it was my initials on a machine nonetheless!

    I was there about a month ago and chatted with Tim, he seemed pretty enthused about the ColorDMD, I believe he had made his order but not received them yet. It is a great way to attract players - a great addition to applicable pins.

    When in Las Vegas this place always causes me to spend $20 to $25 in quarters.

    #17 9 years ago

    Cool pics! Thanks for posting them. Seems that Tim has gone to LEDs to ease on changing them so much. Also never seen the overhead lights turned on inside. Did that effect the games with glare? Lots of stuff moved around since I was there last, and looks a lot cleaner which is nice!

    I've been there a dozen times over 3 years, and never seen HH working. I envy you.

    #19 9 years ago

    Was just there 2 weeks ago. Always a blast. Always carb it up with multiple bags of popcorn! First time playing HH. Was surprisingly good. Where else can you go in Vegas and only drop 20 bucks for 4 hrs of entertainment? Good times....

    #20 9 years ago

    Man CV is always down! I've lived here in Las Vegas for 3 years now. I go to PHOF prolly once a month and I've Never seen it up ever! I wonder what the issue with it is. Hmmmmm

    #21 9 years ago

    Still a fun place as always though!

    #22 9 years ago

    I saw Tim tear some kids a new asshole for running around inside his place one time right in front of their mom. It was very dramatic, but hilarious at the same time

    #23 9 years ago

    Thanks Greg wish we had that here on the east coast!

    #24 9 years ago

    How can you not be jealous of the Gecko!? He blends right in no matter where he goes!

    Have a great weekend brothah!

    #25 9 years ago

    Probably just a fuse.

    LOL. That's both sad and funny at the same time.
