Re: Pay to Play

Whenever I can I will throw some coins in for a game or two. I just came back from Niagara and played a Terminator pin which worked great. No issues, operator obviously takes care of that pin which is good to see so it is worth supporting them.

Re: I got interviewed on Gameroom Junkies :)

That was a great interview Eric, good speaker. I had no idea of your gamesroom setup and it sounds very cool. I think I will need to make another "Tri-City" visit one league night.

Can you post a pic for your token floor?

Re: Montreal in 5

Man that was embarassing. The Habs kind of ran out of gas the last 2 weeks of the season with that losing streak and then continued to tank against the Sens. Thank god it was a short season otherwise I dont think they would have survived to make the playoffs if it was 82 games. Other than their fini...

Re: Could someone post when the PA Appliance dolly goes on sale

The Canadian Tire one goes on sale about 2-3x per year and costs around $70-80 when on sale. Has saved my back many times with the extra stair wheels!

Re: Anyone else get this flu that is going around??

Hey folks. Been a while since I posted, been crazy busy with work in the hospital but I have to say that if you get the chance, always get a flu shot unless there is a medical reason to not get one. It seems that this year there are a lot of folks that are sick with the flu. Nobody bats an eye when ...

Re: The Best EM

I have played so many Gottlieb games that are great. Wedges and 4 player EM pins from the 70's were solid and fun with the targets. Games like Royal Flush, El Dorado, Abra Ca Dabra - lots of fun.

If you like some serious Kung Fu Quentin Tarantino type movies, you will probably like - The Man With The Iron Fists

In the real world, if people were treated this way by the customer service staff, they would not have a job for long and that is not a threat, that is reality. When I studied marketing, I remember one prof mentioned that only a very small percentage of customers will actually comment to a company. T...

Bring this one back to life Sparky! I would love to give this pin a try. I am getting more and more curious about these Euro pins every day now that the so called "A" list North American games have priced themselves out of the market.
