    Playland Arcade and Pismo Arcade in Pismo Beach, California.

    During the middle/late 60's to around 1980, these two arcades were less than a block from the beach separated by a skating rink that had even more pins. Each arcade had around 50 pins. Pismo Bowl a block up the street had several more. The slot car racetrack next door to Playland had even more. We're talking well over 100 pins within a block. If I wasn't in school, chances are I was there. Made me the pinball addict that I continue to be today.
