[QUOTE="nuclearkevin, post: 143910, member: 3777"] In the early 70s Goodies pizzeria in Setauket, NY where I grew up had a Skylab. I was a teenager and played it just enough to learn that there was skill involved. Unfortunately, I didn't catch the fever and never played again until the early 90s. I discovered how [B]awesome[/B] pinball was in Ashland, Oregon at an arcade-restaurant called Goodtimes playing T2, Twilight Zone, STTNG, etc. There was a guy named Randy who had a business in back and he installed and maintained pinball and video games at local businesses. He and his coworker Jim really did a [B]REALLY[/B] great job maintaining the tables! They were cleaned often (we know what a difference that makes) and kept in perfect working condition. I was spoiled and realized it after moving to other cities and the tables I found were never maintained that well. Maybe just bad luck (or good luck at first). The good old days when there were tables around to play... Practically none to be found here in North Carolina now... [/QUOTE]
