I was just wondering what the feasibility of a pinball raffle at an event like this? Do they ever have machine raffles at big events down in the states? I know I would be in for 100-200 worth of tickets.
Quoted from pins4life33:We would love do pinball raffles and yes we have looked into them, unfortunately AGLC has ruled that our organization is not eligible for such draws for our non-profit society. It is on of the main reason we do a silent auction. It is unfortunate as we believe it helps with the fundraising for the event to keep it sustainable. Luckily we have great corporate sponsorship, awesome attendance and great support with the purchase of silent auction items and merchandise to help balance out the books.
Thanks for the quick response.
That's too bad dang government always wants a cut or rains on the parade. Don't get me wrong I really like the silent auction you guys have great stuff in there all weekend. Would be pretty cool to have a shot at a nib machine or see someone win one. I figured you guys had probably already looked into it. Either way I'm super pumped to be able to attend this event. Keep up the good work guys.

Quoted from Grayman_EM:Any list posted on here as to what pins will be there? My facebook is blocked so I cannot see it from there.
That’s what’s announced so far. As a trend I’ve noticed tons of machines are donated late, as in close to the show as people haven’t committed quite yet, so be assured there will be more then that plus lots more tourney machines yet to be announced. Also a list of close to 40 or 50 arcades that will be there as well. I hope that helps.
Cheers

Strange question. I heard that the stern iron maiden release parties are the same weekend. Is there any word on any iron maidens being at yegpin?
