Quoted from elf70:

LTG is there by chance a way for people to donate to you directly, preferably without crowdfunding overhead and all?

Sent everyone the info. Agree I Hate crowdfunding overhead also. If you make the donation Friends and Family they will wave PP getting a donation. Inbox was exploding with generous support requests for LTG. Simply awesome to see for a great person. Your all amazing.

Sent, and your generosity is much appreciated. I would also suggest Anyone traveling to the Minneapolis MN area consider dropping by his place. (When the world returns). It’s truly a delight and you will be treated as a friend from the moment you arrive wether you play or not! He has so many pinball stories to share you won’t be disappointed. Plus he has a cute dog lol. (I mean Guard dog...)

I’ll second all these statements and sentiments. He always does treat you as a friend. He’s also always willing to chat about the hobby. That’s one of the things I enjoy stopping in for the most.

The love, caring, support, private messages and emails, has been overwhelming.

I hope someday to be able to thank each and everyone of you in person. Especially if you stop in my business so I can make your visit special !

why not a go fund me like they did for the guy that fell in the church a few months back?

Quoted from ccbiggsoo7:

I don't necessarily have the funds to help but had a bunch of stock I could move to help. This was my way of helping out. You can also do a direct donation by contacting Yelobird. Pretty much covering both bases at this point.

They also take a cut. PayPal friends and family doesn't.

Lloyd is one of the good ones.

Ok - anyone with a JJPOTC and interested in the cannon mod here’s an opportunity to help - hit up Yelobird for Lloyds ppl and send him $50 and I will send you a cannon set. https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/jjpotc-double-barrel-cannon-mod#post-5616841
You get a discount for a great cause. One set only so reply here first!

Quoted from elf70:

The address is on the webpage.

#65 3 years ago

Yes but that’s not his PayPal. You could just send a donation to his office so long as he is there. Who’s kidding who, he’s Always there! Lol

“Directly” by definition precludes the use of a third party.

You are right. Feel free to mail him support. It’s all good do as you feel comfortable.

#75 3 years ago

#77 3 years ago

PayPal sent! Appreciate all you do for the hobby!

#78 3 years ago

Ordered a set of Stern and Bally/Williams stickers.

Good luck to LTG! Hang in there in these tough times. I have helped out several Pin folks here in CA due to the shortage of customers because it's important to me to keep these businesses going.

#80 3 years ago

PayPal sent! We appreciate all you do for the hobby Lloyd!! Stay safe.

only 1 sticker sale today who's going to give me my second?

#84 3 years ago

Good news this morning. Pinside will be waiving the fees for everyone that goes through the cart system. So this will be less of a hassle and mean more money in LTGs pockets.

#86 3 years ago

Back to a happier state. Roadshow decal set sold.

Great to hear. When reopened SS Billards will be the cleanest hall in town lol. Lloyd had a few months to polish it to new.

Quoted from Yelobird:

Lloyd had a few months to polish it to new.

It will look different. 22 machines are all shopped. About 2 months before the shut down I ordered the lighting change. So I was committed to that. The electric company picked up 60% of it, so it was a good thing to do. And the old 8 foot florescent tubes used about 15 times more wattage than these flat panel lights. So I'll save on electric and a little on cooling from the old ballasts. This happened today.

I have paint here to touch up the stripe where the old fixtures were and paint the walls in the bathroom above the tile line.

Straighten out the drawers on the showcase, and clean out my cabinet where I hang my coat and paint it. Then I'll be ready for when I can open again. It will be looking pretty good in here.

I'll post more pictures when I've got the painting done and the plastic tarps removed.

The kindness and generosity and support here has kept me going through all this. I really appreciate what everyone has done for me.

Thank you,
Lloyd

Quoted from LTG:

No. Had the logo made years ago. Something else always comes up first before getting to use it on stuff.
LTG : )

#91 3 years ago

As several has inquired. I confirmed with Lloyd that the Paypal account he has (an old one...) does respond as Sky Point Communications on receipt and he is receiving all of your Very generous support. Appreciate all that have checked in on this to make sure he is the recipient and not some Saudi Prince somewhere lol.
