Quoted from Monk:
Sunshine laundromat is the only place I have to go when I’m down that way. Absolutely love that place.
I went to pioneer once and didn’t care for it. Definitely a typical bar, with loud music and you can’t hear the pins. Also, a couple of the pins were unplayable.
If you are going ANYWHERE in NYC to "hear the pins" you won't have any luck, besides Modern I suppose, which is basically a big room of games on free play. As of last night all 4 games at Pioneers are in nice shape except Munsters, which blows anyway so who cares. I think the Grandpa hole isn't registering or something. Thrones, Batman 66 (Super LE!), and stern JP all playing great.
