    Every time I go to Vegas, I’ll definitely stop by the PHOF. Better to spend $20 for hours of play than to lose it in a slot machine in a few minutes. That being said, I do agree that many of the games need to be serviced more. Simple shit like making sure the flippers are correctly lined and working right would go a long way. I also agree that the games that are torn down and look like junk should be placed in a separate work area so it doesn’t look like such an eyesore in the main area. Hire more people to service the games!!!

    Quoted from too-many-pins:

    I think we can all agree that things a PHoF are far from perfect but bottom line is it is Tim's Baby and Tim will continue to do things Tim's way.
    I agree 100% that hiring some full time help makes a ton of sense and I think it is long overdue but Tim has to realize that is the only way to make an operation the size of PHoF work.
    Ideally he should hire 5 full time people for the next couple years. Two or three on a short term bases and than once most everything is fixed up and running keeping at least two paid full time repair techs long term. In the end a business model like that would likely yield more donations to charity sooner than continuing down the current path.
    HOWEVER - I do see a huge issue with that. Where the heck do you find 4 or 5 qualified techs in this day and age? But without trying you never know what might happen! Tim took a HUGE risk expanding why not take a much smaller risk paying some help for a couple years to make the place great?

    5 people? They would be out of work in a few months. It would only take one qualified person to knock games out 1 by 1 and the place would be so much better.
