[QUOTE="Thnikkaman, post: 73017, member: 1310"] I was eating at a local pizza joint today, and they have three pinball tables -- two Sterns (Grand Prix, The Sopranos) and one Data East (Last Action Hero), but it's been out of order for ages. When I finished eating, I went over to play some pinball, and noticed that someone had left a credit in Grand Prix. Who am I to pass up real pinball for free, even if the table isn't one of the best? So I'm playing the game, and it's not exactly easy -- hitting the ball into the garage hole pretty much guarantees an SDTM drain when it kicks out. You better hope the ball saver is still on when it happens. Nudging didn't work either, because I'm not used to nudging a real table and man are they heavy! What is this stroke of luck I mentioned in the topic title, though? Well, besides getting a free credit to begin with, I hit the game's random bonus feature and it lit the outlanes. Left outlane is a special! And what happened? I drained down the left not long after and earned it! THWACK! (Man that knocker was loud! Haven't heard a real one in years.) But wait, that's not all! After I lost my last ball, I actually won the match! THWACK! again! Bottom line, I got three free games of pinball due to a free credit, a special, and a match! I'm not too good at real pinball, much less that particular table, but it was quite an experience to get all that. [/QUOTE]
