    Quoted from WaddleJrJr:

    ...About the winner of the 1980 US Pinball Open. [in Hartford, CT]

    I attended that event!

    Count me as one of the people enjoying this thread. Anyone who sees an article in a current magazine is encouraged to post the citation in a thread here, preferably while we still have time to get our own copies. I suggest using the words "magazine sighting" in the subject line.

    Quoted from DennisDodel:

    'THE PINBALL MACHINES' By William Harrison
    The Saturday Evening Post
    April 22, 1967
    Page 64

    I bought that issue of Saturday Evening Post when it came out. For those who weren't so lucky, the story was included in a book that collected several of William Harrison's short stories.
    Rollerball Murder
    Stories by William Harrison
    William Morrow & Co. (New York), 1974
    ISBN 0-688-00265-X

    The story whose title was used as the book title was the inspiration for a hit movie, Rollerball.
