Worlds largest collection of pinball machines right here in Carnegie.  If you like pinball, go this weekend, thank me later.  Enjoy, if you make it.  Nick

That does look cool.   I love everything about Pittsburgh except the air quality.   It's rough having post nasal drip for eight months out of the year.

Pinball is cool!  I loved the machines as a kid.  Most gamers today are into the electronic games.  With the complexity of the electronic games, incredible graphics, surround sound and big screen TVs that you can play at home it's understandable why these are the game of choice. 

I still pref and love the old pinball games.

Iv seen bunches of guys huddled around machines down on butler street in lawrenceville.  There's also a place called kickback cafe that is a pinball cafe near arsenal lanes.  If anyone's ever down there please get in touch with me and come have a listen to my system and dig thru some of my collection.

I have a girl friend who's a drummer that's dating this dude named pinball Sean that owns this duplex an the whole one half is vintage restored to original pinball machines and other sweet games.  So us a lotta cool stuff goin on if you dig deep enough

This looks cool as hell wish I would have known earlier
