I think you should have one on EVERY leg. I mean, what are you supposed to do if you go behind your machine to check something out and you have a drink in your hand ? Are you supposed to actually put it down first ? Come on !!!!
I find 2 per machine is just about right, especially when you have about 18 people over and no tables.
You know, you could just get a table

I for one have pingulps on the right hand leg of each of my pinball machines, and trust me, they are great. but they still take some time to teach everyone that they are there, i just politely tell people about the holders when they place their pop/beer on the glass and try to stop it from falling over.
They are really great, really well built, a little pricey, but they will last forever, they work good, and no one else has mentioned this yet, but they fit even the HUGE pop cops and stuff like that, not just one beer size, there's a smaller ring on the inside,
here's a vid of my new gamesroom, i think you can see the pingulps in it

I was referring to pingulps. $9.95 US (Approx $11 Cdn).
10 pins (1 cup per game) - $110 20 pins - $220
plus tax, shipping etc...
I was thinking anyone with a 15+ games, it is a decent amount of money for some pieces of plastic. But then again... people pay hundreds for coloured plastics that they stick in their pinball machine that gets hit by flying metal balls?
Actually they're $14.95 Canadian locally (GST only when shipped to Ontario), or US$9.95 (but with the usual hassles with tax and brokerage). If one can afford them, they are the best solution available, bar none. But the cheapy Canadian tire ones do work, and can look "ok" if time and care is taken with the appropriate tools to make holes and cuts. They'll work until the lottery comes my way.
