New Greenville SC pinball league starting

To be perfectly honest with you this group is more for me getting to know everybody and finding other people like myself. I found 2 more people today. One in Spartanburg and the other just moved 4 miles from me. When I got started in this great hobby Pete was the only person I knew. He has helped me many times when there was no one else to turn to for help. I'd love to have everyone over my place some day but I think my wife might freak out if I invited total strangers over to a game night. Plus I don't have a pinball machine unless you count Baby Pacman. I want to get into pinball and I thought this would be a good way for everyone to get to know each other. I'd really like to get to meet you there.
 
Curious how this turns out. I've always wanted to do a local pinball thing but the idea of inviting craigslist readers into my home does not appeal.
 
So far near us Jeff I'm found KLOVr's Doodbird (new) and Scottsmith and you of course.

I found a CL posting for Mr. Do and called Rick. He's from NY and just moved to Simpsonville. I just thought it would be cool for us all to meetup somewhere. So Jeff are you in? We will probably branch off of having it at Hot Rods once everyone is comfortable having at each others homes.

It doesn't have to be exclusively pinball we can do vids too. That would be my preference.

I havent met those guys yet, although I have PMed with scott a bit.
Bryan95502 is a real great guy as well! Hes in Spartanburg...
Ill try to make it - just keep reminding me!!
 
Good luck with it, greenville is a little too far for me to get down to but I'm sure there will be plenty of local people interested in it. that captain fantastic is a good one!
 
as much as Id like to get down there - that timing just isnt in the cards for me.. I work until 6 as it is and by the time I get cleaned up and down there from greer, it will probably be over.
Im all for a Meet and greet or an arcade party type thing on a weekend or something..... hell, Id even host one!
But unfortunately I cant commit to a "league" due to real life time constraints. Id like to meet all the Klovers in this area sometime, and hope it goes well for you all!

Hey guys, new to the forums. My wife and I are purchasing a restaurant in Greenville, catering to classic american food. Carrying on with that theme, we are wanting to put in a couple of good pinball machines. I mean what is more classic american than pinball!

If you guys are interested, I would love to host the league. We should be up an running in a month. Just let me know if this sounds like something you guys would be interested in.

It's on Woodruff Rd. Still closing on it, so I can't give the exact location. All the paperwork should be signed by the end of next week. After that is all done, I can get you guys more details.

How would the league run? Meet once a week? We would be open until 9 pm, so that may make it more accessible.
 
food fight

There will be a Food Fight a Star Wars pin and an Addams Family pin. That's what's confirmed so far.

Hi! I know I am way late to this post, but did the show happen already? I am looking for a Food Fight and am located in Atlanta. Any leads? Thanks.

Ok guys, sorry about the wait. We opened this past Friday and this is the first time I have had a chance to get back on the forum. I got a Lord of the Rings in and should be getting a World Poker Tour in shortly.

If you guys are interested, we would love to host a weekly bracket tournament. I have few ideas on how to run it. Single elimination bracket, pairings drawn at random.

If you want to come by and talk or just play some pinball, catch me at the store in the evenings.

We are going to start hosting a Pinball night on Wednesdays at my store for anyone who is interested. Free beverages (soda, tea, water) for those are playing. Top three high scores of the night will win free food! Come out and have some fun, things kick off at 6:30pm.
