Boonton Township, NJ
This will be my first pinball event of any kind and I am excited. Looking to go and play some games and would love to bring a machine home.. Indianapolis 500, if one is there!

Quoted from dmacy:You won't be disappointed even if I500 isn't there. Tons of machines to play and possibly buy. Someone may see your post by then and offer to bring one there to sell you.
Oh, absolutely. I know I am going to have an amazing time. I plan to bring SOMETHING pinball home, I am just hoping it is I500! 
Could be anything though... could be 2 pins! I am not ruling anything out!
Quoted from Covey:Will be my first event too. Taking my two boys out of school to go with me. They're pinball junkies since getting our first machine last year. It's great to see the next generation enjoy the things we have a passion for from our childhood. Looking forward to it.
I like your style... let the boys skip school to enjoy some pinball! I know you will all have a great time!
Quoted from guarda:I'll get you a drink at the show just for that comment. Brought my first pin home last night and am going through a mini hell at the moment with the wifey.
I go through the same thing with the wife. It is mostly a space thing with her so what I did was make more space by throwing out some stuff. Some of it was hers (with her approval) but she was just happy to have me clean the basement. A surprise gift doesn't hurt either (got her a nice necklace she was eyeing at the jewelry store). Allowed me to squeeze in that the goal is to have 5 pins total one day soon. She is actually coming with me May 1st and is cool with coming home with a new pin so all good!
Quoted from dmacy:Pincrossing did have an I500 and unless I heard incorrectly, he was selling it.
Not sure I can pull the cash out now. Unforeseen vet bills and still paying off my Theatre of Magic, then I can save up the cash for a new addition. Should be ready for May 1st though so hopefully he still has it. I am of course open to other pins but I have been wanting an I500 since I played it in Vegas. Fun (and frustrating) pin!
Quoted from beelzeboob:Yeah. Right. My goal was 3 pins 18 months ago. I'm up to 6 with a possible seventh coming by the end of the year.
I'll see you at Allentown. We should introduce our wives to each other so they can talk shit about us.
Women love doing that to hubby pinheads.
I actually derived that goal based on space. I have room for 5 pins. I can only do more if I sell the MAME cabinet or virtual pin. Virtual pin is always for sale so maybe 6 one day?
The other constraint is money. I have too many expensive hobbies!
But yeah, let's meet up at Allentown!
