Quoted from Darcy:How did that happen?
Actually, this happened in late Winter/early Spring. The pic turned out dark, so
I hadn't posted it. Then I see the topic recently popped up again, so I figured I'd
send it..
So now, I'm not 100%, but I'm thinking it came from a hard upper flipper hit
off one (maybe two) of the Aces. I figured the Power Ball may come my way
before this happened again, so I went upstairs and grabbed the camera..
Quoted from Eightball88:If this ever happens to one of your machines, be really careful when extracting the ball.

You could just remove the plastic, that way you don't break the target.

Yup. I found out the hard way that impatience and carelessness comes at a price!
This ball did NOT want to participate in this game anymore!!
These were not only in the same game, but on the same ball in play. One on left was a bullet fired out of left outlane Rescue ball save and required glass off to retrieve. I’m surprised it didn’t break something. Second was freed by a ball search fortunately. Probably wouldn’t even have caught it on camera, but still had my phone out for first one.

Got the ball caught behind the bookcase first. Couldn't complain about this one, since I managed to lift the game without tilting and scored a Dirty Pool. However, I may need to shim my bookcase.

Then this unlikelihood happened. My "Lite Thing Flips" insert must be just BARELY lifted.

Finally, got a ball severely wedged under the Bridge Out sign on Road Show. Forfeited my ball due to "INTERLOCK DISABLES PLAYFIELD HIGH POWER," but it didn't dent my performance too hard as I still went on to set a personal high score of just over 8 billion. I think it might be set a tad too easy.

Seems like the dog isn't getting all of their attention!
Quoted from Pinballlew:Anyone recognize this rare title?

Quoted from Meegis:Guess who nudged it the wrong way....
