“Sleazy bars”? I never played ball in such places! I remember a couple of good games at the Dyn-o-Mite burned joint in Columbia, MO in 1969.

Burger joint. There’s that gremlin Otto Keerekt up to his old tricks.

I was thinking the same thing. Sleazy? “Wow, she just hit High Score. I’m going home with that one”.

Yeah, where did that hack get “sleazy” from?

Spent hours on end playing the pinball machine at the 7-11 in McLean, Va., with a friend on a single quarter for all the free balls and games we got by high-scoring. Silly, but good times! (It would “tilt”, but not for just the right little bump to save the ball.)

Yeah, the authors have no clue. I played Pinball at the entryway to K-Mart, they had 6 or 7 of them easy. I was never any good, and I never had many quarters as a kid and lost ‘em right away. I was envious of kids who could play for more than a minute or two!
