Pinball Update for May 26, 2013

You know that I just love doing these pinball updates at the end of the month! I've been awfully busy lately, playing pinball, setting high scores, hunting down machines... You know, the usual stuff! I have a lot of great updates to bring you this time around but first how about a little preview of Pinballapalooza? I will be doing a more thorough review of the event soon but I have something special for it so hold yer horses! Enjoy these pics for now!







That's only half of it! But I don't want to spoil too much! Now let's get in to the real reason for this post: UPDATES!


California Sandwiches has replaced Spider-Man with The Rolling Stones.


Batman still resides at the restaurant and I also put a high score up this weekend!

PINBALLAPALOOZA THURSDAY MAY 16, 2013!

Stratford Festival is putting on The Who's TOMMY this year during their 2013 season which is pretty cool. If yer not in the know, Tommy is a "Rock Opera" based on The Who's Pinball Wizard. It is also a pinball machine by DATA EAST! (who also made Star Wars!)
 
This is a Tommy machine from The Church of The Silver Ball in Mississauga. It's also signed by Pete Townshend!

Stratford Festival is doing something really friggin' cool to promote their production of TOMMY...



PINBALLAPALOOZA (that's a mouthful!) on THURSDAY, MAY 16TH! That's next week, geeze! I only heard about this recently. I'm super excited but also super bummed because since I found out so late, I missed out on the application for being a part of The Guiness World Record attempt. At the event, which will be from 9 AM to 6 PM, they will be making an attempt to have the most people simultaneously playing pinball. They definitely need a PINBALL LEGEND like myself playing! They could use a high score setter in their ranks...
