pinball in Atlanta

Post by MS_39455 » Fri August 3rd, 2012, 3:36 pm

Live alone, work alone, so pinball is an essential part of life. Gettin' harder and harder to find a good machine. Highlander's my regular go to spot, but they've been down to one machine for a while and rarely change it out. Little Five Pizza hasn't had a working machine for a while and The Local appears to have gotten rid of their's the last time I was there. Any of you dudes or ladies know of any other machines floating around in town? Figured it couldn't hurt to ask here.

Maaaaaaan I love pinball. My folks have a sweet harley davidson pinball machine in their basement that I abuse whenever I stop by.

I can't think of anywhere else that has a machine that you didn't already mention tho :(

Neighbor's Pub in the highlands has one machine but I can't think offhand what it is right now. They are harder to find than ever. Did you go to the pinball museum in Baltimore when you were there this year for MDF? That place was fun as shit.
See you in Hell!

Thanks. Neighbor's is on the list just after my upcoming knife fight at Rocky Mountain Pizza now. Still haven't managed to shake MDF off long enough to make it to the pinball museum. Considering staying an extra day next year just for the museums. I've been wanting to see the B & O Railroad Museum and Baltimore Museum of Art for years.

My aunt has (or used to have) one in her garage and I used to play it when I visited her when I was a kid. It was awesome, especially since it required no quarters.

I think that new venue that is being built in East Atlanta is supposed to have a arcade/ pinball room. Last I heard anyway. Would be cool.

they have something like that in kennesaw. pay 5 bucks to spend in hour in front of a tv as big as your bedroom and play xbox. you can even buy hot pockets up at the counter. it gets the kind of crowd you'd expect

Man, that would be the coolest. That's the first I've heard of this. I still have a handfull of Aladdin's Castle tokens that I never got to use from when the last location where I used to live finally shut down. Haven't darkened the door of a real arcade in at least ten years.
