They are having a tournament. Unfortunately I have to work, so I can't go, but is sure wish I could.
If you are not familiar with the place, it is in the SF Bay Area. It is a 'museum of fun' which focuses on the history of the old Playland in SF.
They also have 30+ pinball machines, from woodrail to Lord of the Rings.
A lot of EM's that I have not had enough time to get to know, but some with some really good kinetics, that can make playing an EM more fun than you would expect.
Of the more modern mahines, alot of classics: Earthshaker, Cirqus Voltare, Monster Bash, Whitewater, Pinball Magic, Creature From the Black Lagoon, Funhouse.
If you like Sterns, they have RollerCoaster Tycoon and Lord of the Rings.
Heck the $15 entry is well worth the cost when you consider how much a CV or MB costs. All games are set on free-play.
They do pretty well maintaining the machines for as much play as they get. Well worth the trip to El Cerrito, CA.
