I would love to get back into playing pinball. I think I still have my World Pinball Championship plack somewhere. I used to play all night on a quarter.

Looks like this will be a large club. One of the things I like about TV is the diversity of interests. Never would have thought of this one.

I know it is not exactly pinball. I have a PacMan cocktail table model. Was very popular in bars in the 80s, so I bought one. Where will this proposed pinball be located? Can we put machines there on a consignment basis? Sounds like fun.

I have a Kings and Queens machine in excellent condition up north. The club would need a pinball room to make it work for all. I would donate mine for that.

I would be happy to help with the setup. I can bring down a project machine from NY when I come down in the first week of November. We can use if for repair and restoration demonstrations at the meetings. Taking it from project to working machine. Let’s set up a group outside of TOTV so we can exchange contact info.

Someone had mentioned in another post that the new first responders rec center has a room where they believe will be a pinball game room. I hope so. I used to play pinball all the time when I was a kid. Would love to play whenever the urge hits me. But started a club for avid players sounds wonderful.
