Pinball for charity & fun too!
Are you feeling nostalgic?
Are you a lone wolf?
Do you like to have dirt cheap fun?
Ever seen a dwarf play Tetris?
Are you a retro stoner?
Do bells and flashing lights get you excited?
Do you miss part of your youth?
Are you a hopeless hipster?
Is Kiss more than just a band?
Are you a nerd?
Do you like cheap dates?
Are you a super hero fan?
Are you a metal head?
Does Captain Fantastic and The Brown Dirt Cowboy mean anything to you?
If you answered YES or NO to any of these questions then you must go to the Pinball Hall of Fame! Run, don't walk, driving is OK too. This is 5 ***** Star fun.
In an attempt to limit my time spent on slot machines and card tables, I yelped some alternate gaming fun and this place is at the top of the list for many good reasons. Thanks Tim S.
It sits in a pretty unassuming building http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=RTv9HeRRtedgQ6xqjew82A&userid=EMMzx-gGDKsU4enmbae6dw not far off the strip and you'd miss it if it weren't for this sign. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pinball-hall-of-fame-las-vegas?select=W7vtQ82-joiNSjazm8LrEA#W7vtQ82-joiNSjazm8LrEA Walk inside and its like you've been transported into pinball heaven. A dark cavenerous place where gamers go to cop a high score or get a match to play again. With rows and rows of http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=UpT5ZsTKVvid2mWUTuebrQ&userid=EMMzx-gGDKsU4enmbae6dw

vintage games from the 70's (and earleir) thru present. I was stoked to find a bunch of killer games from my youth. The only favorite I did not find was Evel Knievel, but it didn't matter 'cause I found all these gems, and many more.
I've always been a fan of Rock & Roll and pinball games. Much love to PHOF!
Cap't Fantastic and The Brown Dirt Cowboy 1975 classic game!

Guns & Roses 1994 A great game with a awesome soundtrack and a great match game feature where a girl pulls up her top exposing the match numbers.
http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=KAEts0-A7XWhnL0W-TQkAQ&userid=EMMzx-gGDKsU4enmbae6dw
And there are lots of newer games too http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pinball-hall-of-fame-las-vegas?select=ii_I4H343cK9j8YOJRAkFQ#ii_I4H343cK9j8YOJRAkFQ as well as a bunch of the classic early video games.
I played lots of games http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=FHh-iKReWdjlWgyfm-dv3w&userid=EMMzx-gGDKsU4enmbae6dw like an old school fool for hours.
But the coolest thing about this place is the owner Tim Arnold who has donated over $500,000.00 to the salvation Army and other local charities from the proceeds of the Pinball HOF. He is one righteous dude. http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=fHHakES3UchMp8t11WI36Q&userid=EMMzx-gGDKsU4enmbae6dw so bring your dollars and exchange them for quarters and tons of fun and help out those in need at the same time. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pinball-hall-of-fame-las-vegas?select=Joz7Y64GdxAcDL_tu59kWA#Joz7Y64GdxAcDL_tu59kWA
