My seven year old son just put up the first 3M+ score on our Space Shuttle!

Kid started out a couple months ago on auto double flip and is now executing some really nice saves. Poor little guy tries like mad to nudge balls off the out lane but his 52 pounds just don't muster much force. I only get to play a couple times a day but even so only managed a best of 2.8M about half a dozen times. I'm so happy he got there ahead of me.

And all the above on a pin where the center bumper still occasionally decides to hibernate.

Ha. Cool.

It's sort of funny. He'll see he's in trouble and say, "Oh no oh no oh no" and start yanking on the machine like mad and the thing just barely wiggles you know? Haha. I say, "Darn, buddy, you almost had it that time!".

His face was so awesome when it rung up the high score too. Shuttle makes this sort of gradually building siren kind of sound. His mouth was all agape and he's jumping around. Hahaha.

God damn. I love pinball.
