When you stop at Shangy's pick up some Dogfish Head Indian brown ale, Cottonwoods Low Down Brown or Rogue Shakespeare Stout.  Yuengling is referred to dirty water lager in my area.  Just a heads up from a beer nut.

Um... complete and working, I believe no one did... but believe it or not, I was the first to buy a pin.



We'll call it a tie, I bought a Time Warp pretty fast    great deal though.. hard to pass up.  Bought it from the guy selling the "swine flu kits".  Very nice dude

I wish I had bought some playfield glass.. that white cube van had them at $10 each by the end of the day yesterday.

Cool game congrats !

The banana flippers are mandatory thou, hope you got them ! I had to buy mines used from Ebay and could never find blue rubbers for them, i had to use the yellow ones.

Game is completely different with them installed and isnt easy ! There was normal flippers on it when i got it and it was way too easy...

This just reminded me of my first and only MAACA meeting back in 2005

The 3 former members from left to right: Splitskull, Sparky with his head into the game as usual and JD3.

They came over and shopped it ! Sparky even drove to Sherbrooke with me and JD to pick it up !! WOW, were we motivated or what..

Thanks, Az!  Yep, the banana flippers were on there.. and I picked up some NOS yellow "condoms" for 'em    Looking forward to getting it working.  It's in fairly good shape, and the gang and I suspect (hope?) it's just the 40-pin connector that needs to be replaced.  It's complete though!  I'll post some pics eventually..

BTW, big thanks to Poolman for helping me bring it back, and to Corey for storing it in his garage for me for the time being.  

oh, and hurray for no taxes or duty!!  Easiest border cross ever!

So who in that London/TO group is Irish? Because you certainly have their luck crossing the border! Or do you keep horseshoes somewhere??  

I made it thru with a wave also. Nice end to a fun weekend.

What is it about crossing the border with me that you like so much?
Long drive with a big trailer is finally over and we made it to the CRACKER BARREL!

GREAT that you made it through too MEDVET.

This was my first Allentown, and I would say it was all I had hoped it would be.
I met so many nice people and found some sweet teasures that it made up for
that killer long drive. We got home at 5:30am....OUCHY

Here's a few pics

COOKIE getting carded for buying Colt45


Shopping at Unkie Gene's


Getting to play my new toy....powered by a generator in the fleamarket


Its all about good friends and  the PARTY!!!!!!!!!


Saturday the sun was out....POOLMAN,always on the search for a good deal


The one that got away....good deal on a vintage Williams


Our last dinner...CRACKER BARREL BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I am already looking forward to next year.

Thanks All

Tom
