Not a complete history, but pretty close.
So, last weekend, I, along with other CAX staff members, provided games for Silicon Valley Comic Con. We had 30 games in total setup on freeplay - a mixture of pins and vids. We were able to advertise and the convention goers could play some games in the gaming area.
Fast forward to the load out - I notice a familiar jingle in my Tron when I tipped it. Seems some folks dropped quarters. It turns out, almost all of us had quarters in the machines. I had at least $2 in each of mine which brings me to the Dig Dug.
The bottom coin door still had the lock on it from when I bought it in January of 2015. I really had no reason to get in there until now. So I used the skeleton key (big ass drill bit) to open it and I found something that I think is totally cool. The operator had a log of the counter, date and location. Check it out:
I think I am going to add "1/15/15 26026 Garage Arcade to the card
Where it is today
