Any Pin Heads here ?

Fishbeadtwo · 01-19-2009, 11:56 AM

Ever since I was a young boy, I played the silver ball.......

Been scouring the local Craigslist and Flea bay and found a machine for my garage/drive in man cave....So now when I smoke in the garage I also play pinball.....So it looks like more smoking but a touch less attention(for now) to flavor nuances.....

with apologies to the Who...."that deaf, dumb and cigar smoker sure plays a mean pinball" ............

If I ever find a reasonable priced 'creature from the black lagoon' I will buy it

Fishbeadtwo · 01-19-2009, 02:43 PM

There is a whole other world out there of pinball freaks...I have owned the Aztec for 24 hours and am already negotiating on another one or two.....Just what I needed, another slope.......

back in 1994 when I was in the army I was stationed in a small town called Middelburg and the base was really small, just 4 small platoons and used for education only. We were there for a course of a month and in the bar there was a 'creature of the black lagoon'. The highscore was by one of the staff and had been the highscore for years, so the owner of the record had a prize in the shape of a round of beer for the guy who broke his record.

All I can say I was pretty drunk at his expence one night

We used to have an Evel Kneivel machine when I was little, if I can ever find one that is in working order I will probably pick it up, used to play that game for hours.

Charlie....BOTLs, Vampires, and Pinheads! We have so much in common!

Here are some pics of my current machine. Also looking for a working condition "Satin Doll" by Williams within reasonable driving distance.

Enjoy it, Charlie!

I am on Mr.Pinball and a couple other sites, just not very often. If you ever see a Satin Doll (Williams, 1972) or Pat Hand (Williams, 1975), for sale in the Midwest, let me know please.

Fishbeadtwo · 01-24-2009, 10:24 AM

Will do my friend ! Do ya got some links for your fav pinball sites?

bazookajoe · 01-24-2009, 10:30 AM

Had one of these in the lobby when I went to college - spent so much time playing it one of my professors always stopped by to "remind" me class was starting. Good times...
