Discovered today at the StaMart Travel Center in Fargo, North Dakota. They have a Stern Roller Coaster Tycoon that, in spite of being filthy, played pretty good. All lamps worked and the flippers were powerful. I had to re-calibrate my shots though because of the lack of Super Bands, Saturn flipper rubbers or for that matter, well, look at the pictures.....

Also note that the upper flippers were fine.

Am I seeing that right? Are there NO rubbers on the flippers? First rule of protection, always put on a rubber.

Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

Am I seeing that right? Are there NO runners on the flippers?

Correct.

Obviously this machine is not operated by the operator of Downtown Fargo's Fargo Pinball Member's Only arcade.

Is Fargo really purple, or does your camera need fixing?

Neither. The camera built into my StupidPhone® works fine in daylight. The Hendrix Purple Haze™ is a nighttime feature when I don't use the flash.

I have the same feature after too many adult beverages.

Fargo?
Watch out for the wood chippers!
