If you really want a good breakdown of what to shoot for etc etc, talk to Cooke. (but you already KNEW that right?)  For me, it was all about the spinner and pop bumper action.  To get all 3 spinners goin' it felt like you accomplished something, and when that happens the sounds this game makes is just sooooo cool.  Overall it was just plain fun to try and kick the machine's a**, but usually it ends up the other way around.

If I found one for a reasonable price I would SOOOOO pick one up. (sorry Cooke)

I think achohol may have been a factor.... but really, what a fun game, Menace has it right! We played that sucker easy 20 times in a row ( with four players! ).

Get those spinners going, wow, huge scores. I also thought the metal scoops under the slings made this a pretty unique game. Pretty smooth playing game. This is one "old school" Stern I would definately consider owning. The backglass goes without saying.
