I would travel across the world to play any 4 of the star trek pins, they are my dream machines.

Well I have travelled over 2700 miles for Pinball before...
Soooo,
I guess 300 miles is O.K.
It IS for the PHOF after all!

If I am really lazy, 25 feet is all it takes!

I only know of 3, bally 1978, the st 25 anniversary data east, and STTNG.

Are you counting the 1978 prototype as one of the 4?

If there's a 4th one I'd really like to know what it is, because I thought there were only
3 ST pins.

There is a MM and Catcus Canyon about 25 miles from me. Wanna visit?

perhaps a 20 minute drive ?

maybe 60 miles

PAPA XIV is in 3 weeks. MM is there, and will be available for 4 days. Just walk in and play up to 300 working pins available. 350-400 if you play the tournaments. 50 cents a game. Aug. 11-14th.

Pittsburgh, PA. pretty much. How far is that for you to drive? I'd give you directions, but...

I wouldn't bullshit you guys on here. It is a pinball experience.

Yeah I hear it's pretty grand out in Pittsburgh,
hopefully someone can post a few photos

So far, 1 hour. But that wasn't a particular machine. More like an arcade.

I don't like to have to cross the river, but I am spoiled.

I travelled about 5 hrs drive to Play Sterns Iron Maiden once and didn't like it much when I got there
....but that was because I didn't understand it. Great game and a real looker. There is a review in my profile.

1 hourish to Lyons Classic Pinball and/or Flipper McGills here in Colorado,not often but a few times a year.

I used to make a two and a half hour train plus a half hour bus journey on occasions to play a MM that was in an arcade on the south coast of England. Sadly the machine has now gone.

I don't think there is now a MM left in an arcade anywhere in the UK anymore.

Outlane-Avoider, I know how you feel. Not enough machines in England. I've got 3 pins an hours drive away from me, but otherwise I'm looking at staying at a hotel overnight just to go and play pinball. (Except the NGG in my garage, which Is a life-saver).

I'm about to drive to Seattle from Walla Walla(5 hours) just so I can play Tron and Big Buck Hunter Pro. It will also be my first time playing a Stern machine.

The two are in an bowling alley in Ames. I think its listed here on the where to play feature...

I don't think I'd go more then 1/2 hour drive, just to play pinball. I basically just play them when I see them. Plus, I get to Vegas every few years and the Pinball Hall of Fame is a must stop on every trip. The way I look at it, I'm practically making money (since I'm losing it much slower then I would if I were in a casino).

Depends on how many machines they had. I'd drive up to an hour to get to 3 machines. I'd go 2 hrs for 6 or more machines with beer and tunes.

Silverballer, too bad this site wasn't here a few years ago. Town Topic had a MM, they also had a guns and roses too. You would have only had to drive a few miles. I drive 3 hours to 1984 arcade in springfield to play Funhouse,grand lizard and Swords of fury. I look at the space invaders pinball there cause it pretty but not very fun to play.
