    Quoted from Pinfidel:

    I can tell you where it AIN'T...Boston! Sadly.
    I'd say Chi town is the heart of Pinball. Most companies started there and Stern's obviously still there and isn't the Chicago pin-fest the biggest and best of them all?

    I guess you don't know about lanes & games in Cambridge and one of the best pinball arcades in the country in Pelham NH (45 minutes from Boston). There are a ton of collectors here, too.

    Quoted from tb0ne:

    A Boston area barcade would make an absolute killing around here. There are two good locations in the Boston area (one of which is close to an hour away) - one sells booze but doesn't allow it in the gameroom, the other has nothing. Pinball with beer > pinball without beer.

    You actually CAN drink booze in the game room at lanes at games, just set your beer on the railing at the edge of the room.
