    Quoted from Frax:

    Cidercade in Dallas is shut down as of today. So with BOS eating dirt, and Cidercade being shut down, the only real pinball on location in Dallas is pretty much limited to Pinstack (bowling alley that has a few of the most recent Sterns) and Free Play (Richardson only ever has like 4 or 5 at a time, and Arlington has a bunch, but it's Arlington and nobody with half a brain wants to drive into Arlington, because the cops are power-tripping assholes that will sit behind a shrub half a mile down from an exit ramp and tag you the second you touch the exit ramp and pull you over if you're 1 MPH over, despite there being nobody around you....and they set up with 3 motorcycle cops and one cruiser just to make sure they can get EVERYONE)

    Travis Hintzel's Regeneration has pins and arcades as well.

    Quoted from Blitzburgh99:

    Cidercade in Dallas just announced they were closing voluntarily until further notice.

    Yeah...im disappointed. Free play is still open though.

    Quoted from Frax:

    OH HEY...thanks for the reminder, seriously! I still have not been over there! That's probably going to happen tomorrow. I was gonna take my younger one to Cidercade. Regeneration's a bit more of a kick in the butt to get to from where I'm at, and I'm much closer to Free Play, but I'll be happy to go to help these guys stay in business. FP has plenty of a dedicated community, I'd rather help the little guy.

    Freeplay just announced they are struggling and may be closing their doors.

    The biggest 2 arcades in my area have closed (one owned 4 locations), and then Dallas county made all restaurants, bars, theatres, and gyms close.
    I'm not really sure if there are any public places to play pinball right now in my area.
