Quoted from Whysnow:

thanks!
The other guys in Madison Pinball are U2Sean (sean) and BigDaddyBanjo (garrett)
Both great guys! The 3 of us are collectively Madison Pinball.
Even more amazing to me is that just 4 years ago we had one location with only 4 games.
There are now 4 (soon to be 5 locations) with currently 35+ games (soon to be almost 50).
The majority of the games are still from our private collections that we put out. Some are games we have bought over the past 5 years.
In case you have not heard, we are supplying a bunch of pinball for I/O gaming bar, which is a new arcade/pinball/gaming bar that is opening down on Willy st later this summer. We are super excited to be partnering with the owner and are working on a bunch of new games that we will be bringing in there. Gonna be a really fun spot!
Side note: Did Quy ever come over to help with your TAF or did you still need a hand?

I buckled down and fixed it on my own while he was at MGC. I need to get in touch with Quy again to play some TNA on location before he gets his and never wants to leave his house again.

haha! You can come play mine whenever it arrives

Also to add, Maria's on East Wash. is our #2 spot for pinball if we don't go to Alt Brew. Great spot! Awesome pins! Plus I check in from time to time to make sure my GC on High Speed is still there

#11203 5 years ago

Had a deal worked out, but it fell through and so I'm making another attempt at this long shot.

Parts - Wanted
Wanted! - “I'm hoping to save some time and space on a project by using an additional cabinet for a swap. Let me know if you have an empty Data East cabinet you're looking to sell.”

Not that it'll help you out in this situation, but if you find one for sale anywhere in the US you can have it shipped. I shipped via fastenal and it was $125 to ship a data east cabinet from New mexico to Minnesota. To me thats an amazing price. Only catch is that fastenal won't pick up, so the shipper needs to deliver to fastenal and help prepare the shipment.

This was the cabinet and transformer only. I estimate 100 ish pounds or so. They said a full pinball machine should still be $200-250 to ship. Great price

I understand.
Had no idea Fastenal was that much more affordable than say STI who often quote $400+
Had I known, I would be the proud owner of that Spidey from Colorado that recently sold for a tad over 4k.
Oh well, live and learn and now I know.
Thanks.

An exception should be made for poutine. Just replace it with Nickelback in your list, as they deserve to be listed twice, anyway.

JP is sold pending pickup next week. Thanks

Quoted from me2:

Time to refresh lineup....I have a nice players JP and cash to trade in the Minneapolis area (about 30 miles west of Mpls). Cab in nice shape, some LEDs, no mods except replaced dinosaur egg with TZ powerball. Running (unofficial) 6.0 rom which is great. Have a few pics, sorry about the poor lighting, but can get more if there is something you want close-ups of. Everything works as it should.
Spider-man VE at the top of wish list, but consider other top 50 titles. Not looking for TAF, DW, AC/DC, XM, STTNG, TZ, Simpsons at this time.
Let me know what's available...willing to drive a few hours or more for right pin. Thanks

Man, this sucks, you're too far away. If you were in Minneapolis or any point west of there, I'd be on the way to get that. But 10 hours each way, I only make that drive once a year for MGC.

I recently got quoted $150 from the Chicago area to St. Paul. It is cheap. Sender has to pallet and deliver to one of their locations though and there is no insurance available unless it is crated, then it's $5000 built in. Receiver has to pick up at one of their locations too, but they have lots of them, so it isn't really an issue.

Thanks. Too bad you are not closer.

I have had a couple responses so far. One general and one sounded more serious but no solid confirmation. First cash can have the game. Genesis is still available for sale...

It was an amazing day of pinball as Fargo Pinball battled The Manitoba Pinball League for the Red River Cup.

Thanks to our friends north of the border who were kind enough to bring some international snacks to share (several items were eaten before I had a chance to snap a photo).

The competition was fierce but the cup is staying south of the 49th parallel! USA USA

I had a Herr's brand of ketchup flavored chips a few years back. They were good. Kind of neat with a hot dog or burger.

#11234 5 years ago

There was a cheeseburger-flavored chip flavor a while back. Loved 'em. Wish they weren't so LE.

I need to find those, I haven’t seen them at my menards. I like the Heer’s Texas Peats hot sauce flavor alot.

This stupid storm... lost power did anyone get nailed by the strong winds? I heard they hit near 60mph south of here.
