Have you ever had balls that just "disappeared" from the playfield while in play? Then searched like crazy only to find the ball in a really odd spot that the ball shouldn't have been able to get to?

Just finished getting my Truck Stop to playable condition and have "lost" 3 balls in the last week. Each time, I found the ball underneath the left side of the skirt by the outhole solenoid. Can't find any obvious way the ball is flying up underneath there when it drains hard, but it gets annoying pulling the glass and taking off the skirt to rescue a ball.

On the flip side, at least I've found their favorite hiding spot...
 
Yup - I feel your pain. On my Funhouse I have an issue when Rudy the dummy is talking and you shoot the ball juuuuust at the right time he'll jam the ball under his top lip area so it looks like he's pimpin a silver tooth. If he chomps down hard enough on it the damn ball will fall into the cheek area like a wad of chewing tobacco. Either way I have to pull his face off and dig the ball out.
