AMH RAFFLE # 2 IS NOW OPEN !!!!!

We had such a great response to the AMH raffle we did at Allentown Pinfest in May we are doing it again in conjunction with this week's ReplayFX show in Pittsburgh. www.ReplayFX.org

We have donated 2 NIB WOZ's so far : one to St. Christopher's Children's Hospital in Philadephia in Dec 2013 and one to the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh in August 2014. This week at ReplayFx we are donating another NIB WOZ to Dan at Project Pinball for his organization to donate to another children's hospital. Why ? Dan and I have become friends given our common objective to place pinball machines in children's hospitals and Dan has a number of hospitals waiting on donations so we wanted to assist his fine organization and partner with him on this donation (and maybe future ones). These raffles directly result in pinball machines being bought and donated for the kids ! The AMH raffle at Allentown in may helped pay for a portion of this machine we are donating to Project Pinball this week. The rest we will be raising through this current raffle at ReplayFX. We hope to have Mark Steinman, ReplayFX Show Director draw the winner for us at the show !

America's Most Haunted - YES we opened another new one up and it will be able to be played at the show... We are running a raffle on this game - one of the LAST ones available after they sold out of the limited run of 150. $ 100 per raffle ticket / and we bumped it up to 125 tickets total being sold. Hopefully we can sell out before the show is over... All proceeds over cost go to the PinballSTAR Children's Hospital Charity. Charlie from Spooky and I came up with this as a great way to let one of the last available games that I bought long ago go towards a good cause. We will be selling entries in our booth at the show, but you don't have to be at the show to buy a ticket - just paypal AS A GIFT (so no fees) to [email protected]. Come on Pinside - let's get these 100 tickets sold before the end of ReplayFX so we can draw the winner there at the show and let someone maybe walk away with it. If not sold out, we will sell until they are gone. Winner will be responsible for shipping is all. The game raffled is the one we will have set up for play at the show. No limit to number of tickets you can buy - side note : the winner of the game at Allentown Pinfest bought 2 tickets - doubling his chances !

Win an AMH for $ 100 !!! Send $ 100 via paypal AS A GIFT (no fees or it will be rejected) to [email protected]... That's all you need to do. Since we are at the show we will not be sending separate email confirmations - but once you get your Paypal confirmation email - rest assured, you are in ! We will also be selling tickets in our booth at the show !

AMH is SOLD OUT - all 150 made will surely be collector's items !

We stopped by the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh to check on the machine we donated last year. The kids were lined to play it ! We can't take pictures of the kids but wanted to show everyone the play room the game sits in ! Look what is on the TV lol !

This is what the raffles enable us to do - thank you for the support Pinside !

Morning bump for raffle entries - Let's give this AMH at ReplayFX !!!

#39 8 years ago

Hi everyone just got on Pinside after 12 hours of setting up and hanging out at show. Here's our booth...

Raffle I haven't checked but I think we are probably only around 35-45 is my guess but I haven't tallied everything yet. I will when I get back to hotel, out for a late bite right now. I'm sure we'll sell out during the show once the doors open and we get folks playing AMH in the booth. So expect a new AMH owner !!!!

Love doing this, exciting for folks to participate, we get lots of good mojo coming our way for the cause, we get to help sick kids, and someone steals an AMH for $100 !

I can't stress how incredible the ReplayFX show is... This will be talked about for months, trust me ! Prepare to have your jaw drop when you walk in !

Thanks all.... Joe

It's your hero...

Hey everyone I do want to give Randy AKA Beezleboob a thumbs up here - I got a call from the children's hospital in Pittsburgh yesterday that their WOZ had a pop bumper issue that just needed a switch adjustment. I didn't want to have them digging in the machine trying to figure out what to do so I asked Randy if he'd be so kind to stop for me on his way home since I'm manning the booth at the show and he said 'sure'... Guys like this that are always willing to lend a hand are much appreciated... He and his lovely wife Janice also attended out dedication of this machine last August and helped with the kids. Great people...

Ok now that that's out of the way we can all go back to busting his chops... You know he wears his socks up to his knees right ?

I 'believe' Dylan is the son of Dennis Vallone who bought in the booth Friday... as we had two entries, one for Dennis and one for Dylan. There were some brothers who bought as well too so I'm not 100%. Still trying to reach him !

So we might have had a father / son team, I think. They bought 2 entries, one for dad one for son.

Hopefully the game goes on Dlyan's bedroom !

#107 8 years ago

Ben and Charlie say THANK YOU to everyone who thinks AMH is so cool they buy charity raffle tickets !!!

#108 8 years ago

Just talked to Dennis (dad) and Dylan (son). They are soooo excited !!! I think Dylan was yelling in the car... They were on way home to NJ and were an hour and 1/2 away and are coming BACK to get it !!! Pics to follow. I'm so thrilled the kid won it... Very cool indeed.

#109 8 years ago

And finally here is Dennis Vallone (dad) and family and one of our winner Dylan with the game !!!

Final Thanks to everyone for your support - on Pinside and at the show... Good things happen from this - Project Pinball got a NIB WOZ from us at the show because of this... Stay tuned on that game dedication with this Project Pinball / PinballSTAR collaboration. Who says two organizations doing the same thing in pinball can't be friends and work together ?

#116 8 years ago

Stay tuned I have one more I can do this with... Maybe in conjunction with York show or Expo in October ?
