Anyone been to Key West lately? I looked on the pin map and the updates were from 2015 and 2017. Heading down there next week for some fun in the sun. Looking to play a game or two while enjoying an adult beverage.

I have! We went about a year ago.
Angelina's pizza was the only place we went to play. It is a counter service pizza place for wasted people to get pizza at 2 in the morning, but they have pinball! Walking Dead and Medieval Madness Remake. They sell cheap beer and they serve it in the same paper cup they serve soda. There are no tables and sometimes the line gets long and playing pinball can be tough. The whole place is probably 500 square feet and there is no AC so if they are pumping out pizzas it gets hot as fuck in there.
Swing by mid afternoon when they aren't busy. We got stuck there during an afternoon rain storm and it was great. Cheap pizza and beer by the beach is the way pinball should be. The owner is usually there and he is chill. Even if the line got long at the register he would let us skip the line to grab a beer while we were playing.
If it's your first time and you are flying in hold on to your shit when you land, "shortest runway in america".
Years ago there may have been a Ripely's pin in the Ripely's Museum. Don't know if they still do that. And it only works if you're already paying to go in the museum.
Quoted from JWJr:(Lurking with interest - heading back there in October.)
going for FF? do tell!
If you are driving down Highway 1 to get to Key West, I would NOT recommend stopping to play the Stern Mustang machine at The Hurricane Bar in Marathon, FL. It was absolutely trashed and barely worked. It may have had the original rubbers and balls in it, to be honest. The pizza there is great though!
Quoted from fxdwg:going for FF? do tell!
Yup. Doing an 11-day with another (very cool) couple, split between KW and the Epcot Food & Wine Festival.
Quoted from fxdwg:going for FF? do tell!
I can sum up FF in three statements :
1. People ... people everywhere ... packed like sardeens ... outside.
2> Boobs ... boobs everywhere ... topless women from ages 18 to 108 everywhere. I am not kidding (ok, maybe 108 is a bit high, but I saw a set that was easily in their mid 80s ... bodypainted ... and hanging low ... she was having a blast though ).
3> Booze. Booze everywhere.
It's a fun time if a massive mob of chaos and breasts is your thing. I was in my mid 30s the first time I experienced it. If I had been in my early 20s, I would have had the time of my life .
God damn key west is dirty. Op doesn’t give a F and blatantly steals money!!! Making us clean ops looks bad!

Is this your pizza place ?
There are so many fun things to do in Key West, don't play pinball, you can do that anywhere. Sloppy Joes, Hemingway's house, Mallory Square at sunset, Truman White House, sunset sailboat cruises, diving, kayaking, miniature key deer roaming around Big Pine Key, Key West Aquarium, Shipwreck museum, cruising Duval St, etc., etc., etc. Don't play pinball!!!!
Ok I will admit it last time I was there I played a MM which was in horrible shape it was a complete waste of money….shouldn’t have wasted my time.
Quoted from Kkoss24:You have to find it .It was next to one of those small outside bars .

These games were hardly playable infact MM was broken. Also pricing cards were not correct the OP (operator) was charging more then advertised. All the games on the island including arcades were filthy or broken. Very frustrating.
Also at night you can drink, play pinball, or drink while playing pinball. No need to tell me what to do on my vacation haha me stopping in on local operators games gives me a reason to write off part of the trip.
