Default Pinball

Has anyone ever gone to the pinball hall of fame? I was reading about it and it sounds incredible.

The building is 4500 sq ft of pinball machines ranging in age from 1950's to 1990's. You are also allowed to play every game in there. The older games will cost you a quarter to play and the newer ones are fifty cents to play them.

The club members always make sure all the pinball machines are in good working order. They try to keep them looking as new. The hall of fame is ran by Tim Arnold. From what I read, it seems to be about 141 pinball machines. That’s a lot of pinball in one area.

Oh did I say they are a non profit origination? After they pay the rent, insurance, and utilities they give the rest of the money to the Salvation Army. How cool is that?

They are located at 3330 E. Tropicana and the hours are 11:00am to 11:00pm everyday, and the admission is free. Now, here is a place I know my husband would love to go to and never leave.

Now this sounds like a great place to visit when in Las Vegas.
I love playing Pinball, but this would be great for even those who dont.
The idea of being able to play all of the games is also really neat. It would be cool to play a game of pinball that was seen back in the 50's, and for all this to be non profit is really awesome. I bet they are able to give the salvation army a good helping hand with its charity work.
Thanks for the information videoslots, I will be sure to visit this place when I take my first trip to Vegas.
