    You know, its about time Philadelphia puts out a pinball article. I met Bill Disney and he is quite the gentleman. I will certainly give his place a visit.

    Bill is a real classy guy. A few of us went there a month or so ago and had a wonderful time playing all his well kept machines. This is where I had a chance to play WOZ and see what a quality product JJP is putting out. He took the time to answer questions and chat it up with us about pinball. I'll definitely be going back many more times.

    Long live pinball and all the places that let us enjoy them!

    Pinball Gallery Rocks!

    Is Downingtown near Collegeville? My kid goes to school in Collegeville and I go there frequently to watch him play Lacrosse

    Quoted from sulli10:

    Not too close. But depending on the route you drive to get to Collegeville would cut down or increase the ride time.
    It's a 20-30 min ride from the King of Prussia Mall heading south on RT 202 to RT 30 West until you see the exit signs for Downingtown. FYI, Downingtown has a some awesome bars eateries not to mention the great coffee and ice cream you can enjoy at the pin parlor as well.. Make a day of it. It's well worth the time!

    Thanks. I take him out after the games. Looks like an opportunity. Sully

    Bill is a great guy with a nice selection of machines across the SS eras. And it is a really nice family atmosphere. Young kids are very welcome to play and have fun learning pinball.
