That poor dog has such a tough job, having to keep customers calm by being awesome when their ball drains. It's a real shame that all that work doesn't even earn her the status of being an employee...I thought we lived in the year 2012!
All joking aside, I enjoyed the article a lot. Congrats!
Wait a minute... LTG is LLoyd Olson??!!
Wow.. I was saying nice things about you in another thread about RGP. Never knew LTG was you!
Nice article, and congrats on 40 years! Quite an accomplishment.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause you to say nice things.
I'll try and be more careful.

The thread was about why RGP is getting less and less traffic. I said the final straw for me was when that "Hot Dog" guy was being so mean spirited to you regarding your business.
Haven't been back since.
Pismo, don't let the FF's of the world cause you to ignore good things. He's a douche, most everyone agrees, just add him to your ignore list. Some really great advice from the sages still are had there, there is room for two pinball 'groups'.

I know... Just the fact that he upset a great guy like Lloyd totally pissed me off.
Having said that... you're right.

I see what you did there
Quoted from Pintucky:You sure put in a lot of hours!
I don't have anything else to do.
10 minutes or less I fix when I'm open. Bigger things I come in early for or leave late for.
And the in between I try and help people with their games.

Congrats. If you were within a couple hours driving distance, I would put some quarters into your machines.
Good to see somebody working at what they love.

made it to ss billiards last march, my daughter got married in the cities and I stopped in for some pinball that week, only prob was I only had about an hour ,spent most of my time visiting with lloyd , but I did manage a few games of bbb, not many of them in the wild. Thanks for your insight,and always positive posts lloyd.
Congrats on the nice article, Lloyd! And yes, it is great to have you here on the Pinside - I hope I will make it to Minnesota one day
I visted LTG on a work trip, had a great time and bought a lower rudy jaw to remember the time. Great guy! Thanks LTG!
Nice article Lloyd, love the picture of you and Prada. I was just saying to someone yesterday, I don't understand people that don't like dogs.
Quoted from robin:Congrats on the nice article, Lloyd! And yes, it is great to have you here on the Pinside - I hope I will make it to Minnesota one day []
Thank you Robin.

Quoted from jlm33:Hi LTG,
Nice article, loved the place... since that discovery of SS Billiards, I have been fortunate enough to play on 2 other BBB... so 3 in total, not too bad...but yours is the best.
Cheers,
Jean-Louis
I really enjoyed your visit Jean-Louis. I hope we meet again.

Great article. I can only imagine all the things you have seen and experienced over the past 40 years working there. Your dedication is amazing.
Just finished up my business trip in Minn and dropped by this week so see my old friend Lloyd. I only get to Minn every four or five years, but I always make time for SS Billiards. Prada was doing the usual job of protecting the fort, and Lloyd had great stories to tell as usual. Put in games on MM, AFM, FGY, BBB, Taxi and Police Force. Always a treat.

Thank you for stopping in. Always a pleasure to see you.
Glad you got home safe and sound,
