It’s not too late to sign up for the New England Pinball League. Week 1 has come and gone, but since only your 6 of the highest 8 week scores get submitted towards finals, you can still join without penalty.
League consists of 8 weeks of competitive pinball play, and follows up with finals where trophies, and cash are given out, along with end of season party (food included).
Finals will be at Pinball Wizard Arcade in Pelham, NH on August 2nd
The season costs $30, plus token drop. If hosted at a private house, then $5 each meet up instead of token drop. $7 a meet up at Pop Bumpers Pinball, as they are admission based. $20 goes to the prize pool, and the other $10 goes to the end of season party.
If you already signed up, please do not forget to bring your league payment ($30) this week.
There are quite a few different locations to play at. (You can only play one location each week)
Pinball Wizard Arcade has a large collection of about 100 games consisting of EM’s to the latest games.
Lanes and Games has some of the very latest pinball machines all in excellent shape, not to mention great drinks and food at the bar.
Pop Bumpers Pinball is the place for classics. They have 10 of some of the best EM and early solid state games. It’s like going back in a time machine. See your name in chalk, if you can top some of the scores there.
Bill’s Garage, well a bunch of pins in a garage, but not your typical garage. It has been told it’s like a party each league night.
Jake & Theresa have a great collection, not to mention some of the best hosts around.
JR has about 40+ setup and running in his home collection. Yes I said home collection. Lots of variety here as well, and JR is a great guy as well.
