    Beechwood for what its worth: We have an infamous place called Dezerland in Orlando. It's a cool massive place and built by a millionaire, but their pinball location inside hast the worst rating and their tech quit because he claims he wasnt even paid. That tech now works at another local place 40 mins away Pinball Lounge (which is super close to me) and the owners there love pinball and are there every Friday keeping it going with stuck balls and all kinds of stuff on the spot. I call the owner between 2-10 times a night for some kind of dumb issue.

    Quoted from dboeren:

    Good to know, we're going to Orlando in June.

    Yea unless they get something in shape, just nothing being done to the games. I had a ball stuck in AC/DC scoop from 1st ball. I got in scoop and then realized two balls were stuck on top each other. Dracula flippers were super weak. Another game was missing ball the second I stepped up to it. I lived in Marietta and been to portal before. If you can make it to Pinball Lounge, Friday 8-12pm $10 all play, all machines work, guy is on site. Guy has no passion for pinball at Dezerland. I offered them to buy it out down the road if it keeps going south. Such a perfect location( high traffic, cool place otherwise). The owners at the Pinball Lounge are changing it up and retiring, so they are going to maybe have other options than friday play or quarters, so look it up before you go in June. Dezerland just has random kids cycling positions. In one hour of play I saw 3 different workers at the pinball counter.
