    Quoted from bingopodcast:

    Volunteers needed for filming! Please contact me for details. I plan to edit a video together of the unboxing and post online for those that cannot attend, but I would love to have several (or many!) angles.
    Lots of questions will be answered by this unboxing. Join us!

    Thanks again for all of your help Nick. I have been out of the bingo 'loop' for a while, so I am looking forward to the unboxing and meeting old friends and new bingophiles.
    The game was originally shipped from the Bally factory to an operator in Omaha, Nebraska. I picked up the game in Morris, Minnesota this past July. Hopefully the game will be playable but I have my doubts after 46 years in Nebraska and Minnesota winters.
    Stop by if you can. No idea what might be in the box. Silver Sails, a load of bricks, Jimmy Hoffa?

    Edit: Should be 56 years. Not 46. Math was not my best subject. Surprised no one caught it.

    Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:

    Wow that thing is massive!! Box is in impressive condition for being neglected over 56 years! I hope you folks plan to keep the box too, it’s absolutely incredible!
    And yes I am one of those weirdos who keeps the boxes and paperwork for their expensive toys.

    The box, and everything that is in the box will be saved.
