Branson, MO
CP Pinball closed this weekend .... Wish they were opened more often but glad they are around for sure. Anyone go anywhere to play some pinball this weekend??
(Topic ID: 76546)
Quoted from EMsInKC:I'd sure like to drive on I-Farty Far to drop a quattah in a machine, then maybe get some Velveeta on a cracker crust pizza afterwards.
Velveeta? Yeah, no.
Quattah? Boston maybe? Here. No.
I? We just call it farty far. And 70, and 55.
You should get to STL more. Maybe catch a Cards game, pick up some BBQ, ya know. See a real city.
By the way, what is the word on 3rd rail? That place was awesome. And close for those who live south.

Had a BLAST at CP Pinball last night -- they had added a few new machines since my last visit. LOVE that place -- I got a chance to play the New Stern Mustang Pin ... Ehh. I wasn't impressed. Just didn't do anything for me ... With so many great pins out there this one just gets lost in the mix in my opinion.
Today (Sunday) will probably be the last day that Mustang LE is at CP for an open day, so go get your fix from 12noon - 6pm.
There are also quite a few games for sale with prices listed on the games.
Thanks to Brian Bannon for running the Mustang Launch Party Tournament on Saturday and for letting us play his personal Mustang LE and thanks to those that came out and participated. Hope you had fun. Thanks of course to Chuck for hosting and opening up early at 3pm for tournament goers before the open night.
Cp will also be open next Fri and Sat night.
Also, tournament at Silver Ballroom on Sunday July 27.
Hi guys,never noticed or saw this STL sub-forum,what a great idea.I'll be here a lot.
Quoted from Beez:When CP is closed where do you play Pinball?
The Silver Ballroom and Orbit Pinball Lounge are good places if CP is closed.
Did anyone else find the Sailor Jerry Shore Leave at Randall's yet?
It plays great and it sounds like it will live there for some time.

Ok guys, change of date for the 2015 Keller Pinball Bash. It has always been the first Saturday after New Year's since I started it but in 2015 it's going to be the second Saturday after New Years. So this year it's Jan. 10, 2015. Sorry for the change and I hope there are no mix ups this year. Should be another fun one and hopefully we don't have 12 inches in the forecast this time.

LOL at St Louis BBQ. Pouring sauce on meat doesn't make it Q. The worst joint in KC world be SRO in STL.

All you need is proper STL style ribs and properly prepared pork steak to change that attitude. What I like about our BBQ is we embraced styles from all around, but still have our own uniquiness.
I've never been a fan of Arther Bryant's or Gates sauces. I do like standard KC style sweet and smoky sauce.

Your just jealous because your Kansas sports teams cannt compare to our St. Louis teams!!! How's hockey in KC?
Not pinball related, but groupon has a coupon for scarefest for the three main STL haunted houses/attractions for one price plus speed pass, but blackout dates on oct weekends. I think under $40 per person for the triple pass. Also available are discounts for single or double haunts too. Darkness, Abyss (lemp), & creepyworld.
Bump for tomorrow's tournament.
Can't wait until the 2015 Keller Bash. Always a great time with awesome pinball machines. It's a must attend event.

I brought my Mystery Castle up to CP pinball this weekend to give people a chance to play it. It will be set to free play with the rest of Chuck's collection. If anyone wants to play it stop by this weekend during open hours!

That was nice of you. Ed
Went to CPs for the first time today. Wow, what a place and 60 plus pins for $10 for 6 hours of play; you can't beat it. My buddy and I had a great time. Everyone there was considerate and no one hogged the really good pins.

CP Pinball last weekend with some friends ... LOVE THAT PLACE!
Wish it was open more often:
2 hour rates or 6 hour rates
6pm-8pm = $10
10pm-12pm = $10
6pm- 12pm = $15 ... Seriously - GO BIG!
2 hours isn't enough time for this place - it's a BLAST!!

I have one TWD LE available if anyone is interested. Its my last one.
I have a few open spots in my pinball room and I'd love to fill it with a Metallica or TWD
I'm also working on pimping out a Metallica Premium which is New Out of the Box. Custom Powder Coating, Cliffys, Shaker, ext Polk sub, lots of Mezel Mods, lighted speakers and maybe some more I can't think at the moment. Should be finished next week after I get the powder coated items back.
I'm thinking about selling my Adam's Family and Hook. Anyone local have an interest? PM me to discuss. Rob
I have a Breakshot for $1200, extremely nice Demolition Man for $1800 and will have a LAH ready in 2 or so weeks for $1400.
Kurt
I just picked up a very nice RBION.That is a fun machine,underated if you ask me!
Quoted from travisbmartin:Has anyone asked Chuck at CP if he's getting a TWD? We live three hours away, but my wife would be running to the car if he's getting one.
I'm in Benton KY and I will have an LE in the showroom. Everyone is welcome to come and play it. Also there will be a launch party in Nashville.
Quoted from DougPiranha:I have a Breakshot for $1200, extremely nice Demolition Man for $1800 and will have a LAH ready in 2 or so weeks for $1400.
Kurt
man, you're killing me with that demo man. that's a very fair price for a very fun game. all these games are priced to sell. wish I had more space.

You won't find a nicer DM a steal at that price!!!

Kurt find me a defender pin. I just missed out on two in the last couple of weeks. Ed
Thanks guys!
Breakshot is going to the Silver Ballroom. Thanks Steve & Shelly!
LAH is a players game.
Demoman is minty. Almost not a scratch.
Fast-Ed- I knew you were looking and keep my eye out.

Chuck won't buy new Sterns right away. No reason to wait X months for code to mature. Maybe he changes his mind after he plays it at expo. However, it is Chuck, and he could change his mind at any time and buy it!
I know he is no longer on pre order for the hobbit. We have talked about him getting a Metallica if the price is good since the code is much better now.
No promises either way. Chuck's buying patterns cannot be predicted 
PS, bump reminder for tournament next week at CP on Sat 11th and silver ballroom on Sunday the 12th.
Also, CP is open this weekend and next weekend to schedule around Expo.
