Pu in an offer today for a nice spot, near Lakeshore and Carlaw in Downtown Toronto.Figure we can comfortably display around 100-120 machines.Zoning in this area is good to go as well. Has a second floor mezzanine also, about another 1000 sq ft. If they accept our offer , we'll be up and running by 1st week in August. Also was considering the old bowling alley in last pic, but that needs lots of work. I welcome your comments and suggestions.

PS first tournament is for a yet unnamed upright machine...highest score takes it. I was thinking something like Galaga, ms pacman , etc.

You bring up a good point.. might be a good day to bring all you miscreants back for a free day, complete with some refreshments! I am real excited about this place, I have been looking for a long long time, and this seems as good as its going to get. Priced right as well to ensure a really long run.

You should do a few games Galaga, Ms Pac, Dragon's Lair

Combined scores like Starcade

TOPL will be there as soon as you are up and running.

I'd also like to talk about setting up a pinball tournament of some kind at your place as well, but we can discuss that later.

The garage doors are interesting.  But I wonder what the heating bills would be like in the winter?

The bowling alley is a lot more open but might take a lot more to get it up to par.
