My dad always played pinball and introduced my brother and me to the game when we were young. At an early age we would play by standing in a chair. My dad would normally start off by racking up some free credits with his game play then it was our turns. My dad was also famous for his you play one flipper and he would play the other.

Grew up in the 80's (great time) pinball and arcades easily found and often played.

Then in 2009 it happened, listening to a local radio program called the swap shop, some one local had a pinball machine for sale. Always thought it would be cool to own a pinball machine so I bought it, played the crap out of it. Next thing you know looking for another, then another.

Now visit / hunt out pinball when I travel. Enjoy the people and the hobby. Just this year started to play in some local tournaments found its another great way to meet fellow pinballerz.
