In the last ten years I had driven many times from Los Angeles to Vegas. If you have not done this ever, I would do it at least once.
I like to time the sunset as a I roll through Death Valley. You can see the massive solar array, and now you are getting closer!
The first stop in Vegas as I roll in was always the Hall of fame, and will continue to be.
So it makes a perfect beginning to your trip. IMO.

I would not imagine the video news would include phof until completed. My guess is an upcoming video would likely include the hall of fame once it has opened for customers.
My assumption is they will come with some cameras later. Can’t wait to watch.

Quoted from emguy:..and allow me to make one more point while I am riled up about people's judgey (is that a word?) attitude.
You may not have thought about this, but the amazing thing Tim is doing, WHICH LIKELY NONE OF YOU CRITICIZERS ARE DOING, is he is re-directing funds that individuals spend on ENTERTAINMENT, and channelling those funds to PUBLIC SERVICE. Who thinks to do that? Tim wants to help others, and instead of opening a charity and continually asking for donations, instead he provides a venue to entertain the "donors", and then gives away the profits to charity! I would guess that most patrons of the PHoF don't even realize they are helping a fellow human being in need by playing a game of pinball.
Seriously, have you not seen the checks he's posted before, about how much money is going to the Salvation Army? Talk about accountable! Tim was posting the monthly donation checks for years. And do you not know that the reason the PHoF donates to the Salvation Army is because the PHoF has done their research, and determined that this one charity does the most good for those in need with the funds donated to them?
Who else among us can claim to have helped those in need to the level that Tim has over these past years? Probably not many, if any, of us. So please don't throw rocks at the one guy that is being the most effective among us in serving his fellow man. Instead, let's thank him, and support the efforts of the person getting it done.
Well done, Tim Arnold, and well done, Pinball Hall of Fame !!!
I would have liked to be that donor. But I do not have extra money for that but I like that a donor stepped in though.
The needs and expenses will be many and I wish the hall of fame all the continued success. I hope to drop quarters soon.

Quoted from timarnold:I keep telling myself, "If it was easy, EVERYBODY ELSE WOULD BE DOING IT!"
