Great to see local media covering pinball!! Looks like the event was very successful, plans are bigger next year, all eras represented, Even Hercules was part of the action!
In addition sounds like Blainebrook will be getting an AC/DC Premium, Its really amazing to see this game in action with new updated software.
It had nothing to do with betting, anyone could bet on someone winning or losing a game of doubles. It's the fact the games paid out money or you could get some amount of money for a particular score, plus the fact that pinball was mostly a game of chance up to the late 40's, no real skill involved.
