Pinball featured in commercials?

[BennyJackdaw]

Last night I found myself nerd-gasming over a commercial for something (some type of medicine starting with the letter C, I think). It had this old guy who went to the arcade to play Pin-Bot. The commercial showed shots of Pin-Bot's sides and table art, and it was kind of cool seeing a pinball table being used in a commercial at all. Maybe Pinball's still a thing in arcades?

Anyone have a link to a video of a commercial fitting this description, or any other commercials with pinball tables in them they'd like to talk about?

I’ve seen that ad as well. Have no clue what drug it was either. The drug names all sound so similar and meaningless that I can’t remember them.

I know, I mean why does every medicine have to have some indecipherable name? Tylenol, Benadryl, Xyzal, Lansoprazole, Ibuprofen, etc. And those are just the ones off the top of my head.

Just imagine the RX drug crossword puzzle you could make. No one would ever solve it.

Imagine Scrabble where you're allowed to use drug names....

I know it's stupid to try to apply logic to a commercial like this, but the fact that the guy stays on the top of a rolling ball the whole time just kills it for me.

Yep just caught that too! I think I even recognize the arcade as Free Gold Watch in San Francisco. They have (or had in March 2016) a Pin*Bot.

Okay. Totally not the arcade I thought it was.

In other news, I can't believe I voluntarily watched a YouTube video of a prescription drug commercial.
