The pinball exhibit is still there and will probably be there for a long time. It is the most popular exhibit in the museum. My brother is the caretaker and restorer of the machines. That punk actually came from NZ! As someone who has been there a ton now I actually like the museum but I too thought it was boring the first couple of times. I finally got unlazy and started reading all of the placards and learning alot more history and found it more interesting than costumes and instruments.
