Ok, you know how dudes are always posting a picture of part of a game, and asking us what it is? And how it takes like 2 minutes for someone to figure it out?

Well, good fn luck with this one!

It doesn't help that the quality is very poor and that the cameraperson seems more interested in the fact that Mick Jagger is talking with Freddie and Roger than the pinball machine being played by the roadie, but whatever!

It took me while, but think I have it sussed out...but I'll give you guys a shot first.

Yeah that's gotta be it. I had to sleep on it.

Greg Poverelli, he of being in his 20s, wanted to know "why its so blurry" and if there's a "higher res version."

Back then, EVERYTHING was blurry dude!

I'm looking at either round inserts or paint betwixt the slings which leads me away from meteor

my guess was gonna be nine ball but the inserts might not match 100%

do we know when the pic was taken? what other games have a center post of that era?

I'm thinking that second pic probably is one of the Steve Kirk classic stern's too. I think i see a small post between the flippers. Definitely looks like a classic Stern apron too.
