    Whitewater VUK

    The spinner sound on JJP Pirates.

    #4 4 years ago

    Probably my wife's voice when she is not in a good mood.

    #6 4 years ago

    I voted Stern Fake Knocker, but I can't stand the Dalek screaming on Dr Who machines. Sorry.

    #7 4 years ago

    Sound on Gottlieb Time Line.

    #8 4 years ago

    probably ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok in Lethal Weapon. BUT the Stern fake knocker is a close second

    Starship Troopers bug kills?

    No poll choice for Mother In Law? Fail.

    An expensive backglass breaking....

    #15 4 years ago

    Vuvuzelas by a mile. The sounds of 10,000 vuvuzelas for 90 straight minutes almost ruined the 2010 World Cup for me. At least nails on the chalkboard only lasts a few seconds.

    #16 4 years ago

    Stern Star Trek's end of ball "Werreeeer". You can hear that from 20 miles away. You can hear it always at a noisy Pinball Expo main floor.

    #17 4 years ago

    Another vote for the fake Stern knocker.

    The Ting on the WOZ lanes

    Soccer in general ruins the World Cup for me.

    I'll never understand how anyone can dislike that sound, it's actually been my phone's notification sound for years now, lol.

    #22 4 years ago

    A police siren in Georgia.

    Dropping of coins into a parking meter in TX.?

    #25 4 years ago

    Also the sound of running water in your house where you know it shouldn’t be

    #26 4 years ago

    Steve Richie as a voice call out

    #28 4 years ago

    Future Spa background music. Well, they refer to it as music. I think of it more like bad tinnitus.

    #29 4 years ago

    Moderated. Sorry to offend that segment of the populace.

    When you turn a game on and you get 3 bomgs meaning you have a problem.

    The fan on Aerosmith

    The sound of your wife saying no to getting another pin.

    #33 4 years ago

    Stern fake knocker sound makes me cringe. Me and my wife hate it

    The famous Meteor Buzzzzzzz!

    #37 4 years ago

    That urp urp urp noise a dog or cat makes before it vomits. . . usually in the middle of the night when you are sound asleep. I swear no one would ever sleep thru their alarm if that was the sound programmed to wake you up.

    As far as pinball goes, the sound of "No Flashdrive Detected" (or something similar) coming from my Pinsound Card after I've just installed a new flash drive with a new sound package.

    Nails on the blackboard is the worst for me
    Stern fake knocker is almost equal,
    Dogs about to barf sure wakes you up fast and
    Then two hours to fall back to sleep if you can

    #42 4 years ago

    Ghostbusters Scream-It is piercing and I know I can turn it off but I love it and hate it at the same time. I do enjoy watching people who have never heard it before freak out and look around.

    #44 4 years ago

    The sound of something metal falling from bottom
    of playfield during a game!

    Happened to me at 3:52 this morning. I didn't know I could move that fast. Took forever for me to fall back asleep because I was waiting for round 2.
