Another cheeselander checking in...

Recent pick-ups:

Robo War - Rare-ish 80's Gottlieb. All around great play, light show and sound.
SkateBall - Found a really nice example. Fast game. PAPA has a video on it... even more fun now.
Jacks to Open - Another Gottlieb. SS version of Lucky Hand. Seems so simple but is a butt kicker.
HS2 / Getaway - Fast and fun. Looks even better with the LEDs.
Grand Prix - Williams EM. Still in the shop. Almost dialed in....almost.
Multicade - I used a video poker machine cab/13" monitor and a 60in1 board. I like the small 20"x26" footprint. It doesn't take up a precious pinball spot. Slipped right in...

Quoted from RustyLizard:

There was a bar in Slinger a few years ago that had a Stern NBA. Is it still there?

Emily's... upstairs. It was there over the summer. I'm due for a fish fry over there, so maybe time for some "research".

AC/DC Pro at the Mineshaft in Hartford. Looked really clean. No time to play.

Warning: It is so frikkin' loud up there with all the redemption games and kids, I doubt you'll be able to hear anything though. Maybe it's cranked up... maybe not.

Quoted from davewtf:

do any of you Wisconsinites remember ting soda?

Oh hell yeah! When I was a kid, every little league baseball game ending with the rush to the cooler for a bottle of Ting. The cream soda was awesome.... the lime was good too.

If it wasn't Ting, Jolly Good was the next choice. Remember the steel cans with the jokes printed on the bottom inside?

Those were the days.... (man, now I sound old)

Quoted from RustyLizard:

Dang Creme Soda always in the way.

6 months from now, you will look back at this post and laugh....

Yup... just ask her what game SHE would like. Then the floodgates will open.

#2738 10 years ago
Quoted from PinballKen:

Have to expose her to some games. Wife had no interest, then I took her to a couple of pin parties and now she has a list of what she wants.

I brought home Scared Stiff and now it's a green light to get what ever I want.... if I can scrape up the money that is.

Go SS. You have do the board upgrade/ mods so it holds high scores which is nice.

And.... with the new board.... when all the drops are knocked down, they reset and count down your bonus while you keep playing.

Hearing the chime box go nuts like that is pretty cool.
