My kids are still young, but I will probably pick one of these up myself in a few years.

Quoted from sammiesguys:This was one of my favorite games to play as a kid. I would love to own one some day myself. I see that you can get them with a split base or without. Is the only reason for having the split base to get it through narrower doors? Otherwise, does it matter?
Good luck with your search, OP.
Yes. You need to have a 35" door to fit the non split base through a doorway if i'm not mistaken. I've been researching these and planned for it be my next purchase, untill MMR was announced. Who knows it still my be my next toy.

Quoted from Who-Dey:I would go with the split base just to be safe and also they are supposed to be putting up one year same as cash financing this week sometime. They have the Pay Pal 6 months same as cash option right now. Just thought I would throw that out there in case it helps you any.
Which game are you going to get? I think I'm going to get the Miracle on ice version.
Where did you hear about the 1 year same as cash?
Quoted from Who-Dey:By talking to the people in sales where they make the games. I just talked to Lindsey this afternoon actually and she said that she was told that it is supposed to be available starting tomorrow.
Nice. Getting an MMR soon so no way I can get one right now, but with that deal maybe it’s possible.
Quoted from Who-Dey:I was wondering the same thing. Is that not ridiculous or what? On a side note, I have started watching hockey a little bit since I've gotten interested in the bubble hockey thing and NHL 20 on the PS4 and holy crap hockey is an awesome sport. Those guys get after it, much more exciting than today's NFL. I never thought i would ever hear myself say those words in a million years.
Go and catch a game live if you can. Nothing like playoff hockey.
Yeah uppers are not bad. Sitting closer you get a better feel for the speed of the game, which at that level is extremely fast paced. I had Caps season tickets for a few years in the uppers.
Haven’t watched or Paid attention to the blue jackets this season but it’s still early. They went all in last year at the trade deadline and it didn’t pan out for them.

Got an email from USA hockey. Use code MIRACLE40 to get $150 off the miracle on ice version. Good thru the end of February.

So I got my game yesterday. What do people use to clean the dome from finger prints etc? I got young kids and they like to touch the dome constantly.
Other than that loving this thing. Kids are having a blast with it and I think this will get a lot of love in my house.

Yeah occasionally I’ll hear boos but it’s usually random quotes from the announcer or even a cheer once in awhile.

I got 4 from Taylor myself. Work well. It wont hold much larger then a can, so if you like to drink from a cup, like a yeti, it may not be wide enough. Not a knock against it just letting you know.

Congrats. The LEDs are a nice touch. Kids wanted them and glad I got them. Pops with the lights off.

Ended up going with the Miracle On Ice. I asked for a white base but they wanted an extra $500 for that so I decided to stick with red
Yeah I had been eyeing one for years. Went with the Penguins as the away team.
Quoted from Flipper_Ripper:What’s shaking the goalie? Is that just going back and forth like crazy with the goalie?
Also can we add LED under table lights aftermarket?
Pretty much. It will actually move the puck if done hard enough. My kids do it when the center has the puck and they’re taking their time to shoot. I try and tell my kids to hurry up and not shake the goalie.
