Fun photos. The 'ball stuck' versus a 'ball that has stopped moving'. Seem to be different situations. A stuck ball will require the hard shake of the game or removing the glass, to free the ball(s). The slow moving ball that stops during play is odd, but it does happen.

Got to Love Pinball! All that randomness.

Bad picture. Done during a multi-ball collision.

This happened this morning. Not a strange place to get a ball stuck. But it is stuck. Looks like it decided to chill out from game playing and take a rest.

That is one of the benefits of those rubber barrel holders. Allows the plastic to lift up. Especially on games with no replacement plastics available.
Easy to get the ball out. Will not get stuck in your nut driver, if it falls into the cabinet will not short out anything.

But that is the Bowling Alley. Not a private residence, (unless a bowling alley is your residence).

Looks like it is waiting for another ball to travel by.... ready to pounce.

Quoted from ZNET:

Ball to psychiatrist: "So there I was, on top of the world, pondering two divergent paths in my future, when profound indecision paralyzed me in my tracks. I was headed toward 'A' road when I was suddenly overcome with the inexplicable urge to 'B' somebody, to take that proverbial road not taken."
Psychiatrist to ball: "You're joking, right? I can never tell with that poker face of yours."

I would bet you a dozen doughnuts, that when that ball was finally moving it went towards the "A" Roll Over, then you tapped the left flipper a few times hoping the light would lane change.

At the YEG Pinshow, technically the ball is not stuck. It just stopped there, leaning on the post and insert ridge.

Went to the local Pizza place to get a pie. The Comet has a ball stuck, no search feature will un lock that roll under bar.

Quoted from ImNotNorm:

Where is that pizza joint?

Basiles in Leduc. A pinsider named Don (I think) owns the games in the place. Currently the Comet and a Touchdown, and 2 arcade games.
The Touchdown is off, the 1000 score counter will not reset, so a coil just keeps buzzing.
