Was at the local state fair a few weeks ago and an exhibitor was there with machines. He runs a local company fixing them up for sell and he also does the routes on the bars (repairs, exchanges, etc.) He had half a dozen machines in his display and all were free play. My son and I had to be pulled away. Brought back SO many memories. He said business was off the chart nowadays. I thought to myself...what a cool freakin' job to have

You know, you just can start in the middle of these threads, or you see Tom has gotten rid of his Fun Machine and is looking for a Satin Doll.......Now I see what this thread is about.

If you are ever in Las Vegas. A few blocks west from where Tropicana crosses the Strip, i.e. by the MGM Grand, is pinball Mecca, the Pinball Hall of Fame. Twenty dollars will last you many hours and you will have a great time. Every machine costs it's original price to play. No cost to get in the door.
