[QUOTE="RetroDude, post: 121014, member: 187"] Jeff, thanks for posting that link. I wasn't aware of that site. Bookmarked for future vacation plans. I was only aware of the Pinside site having locations. [url]http://pinside.com/pinball/map/where-to-play/[/url] I'm aware of TWO machine in a 25 mile radius of where I live. One is a classic EM machine that's primarily used as decoration in a pizza place. Most of the time it doesn't even have the power turned on. If I can get permission to play, it's the closest one, but it's more of a pain to do so than anything as folks seated nearby tend to compalin about the noise when you are playing it. (no other arcade type games at the location at all, so it's really noticed by folks when you do try to play it.) If I bump it up to a 50 mile radius, I'm up to perhaps 13 machines. That includes machines I'm aware of and ones identified on Pinside. Only one location has more than one machine... it has three. I would have to pay to get in to that location and still pay for each play. One of the other locations is similar, where you have to purchase a crappy buffet meal to get in only to find out that the one pinball machine is out of order again. Two of the locations are Chuck E Cheese, each with one very poorly maintained machine. I'm not exactly in the middle of nowhere. The "Metropolitan Statistical Area" I'm in has close to 900,000 people. I'd dearly love to access to the wealth of pinball that is Chicago. [/QUOTE]
