    That thing is so cool!!

    It looks like a 1959 Philco Predicta televison with a bowling lane in front of it.

    Awesome design. Not so Awesome price for us gamers on a budget.

    In my freshman year of high school my buddy and i would go to the malt shop across the street from the school for lunch. we always got a great burger, fries and shake

    they had a pinball that i played once in awhile and a shuffle board puck style bowling game. I played that most days

    that was back in

    yes they had something in a container to shake on the alley, maybe vary fine sawdust.

    I think the alley was about 6 feet long, but, that was a long time ago to remember for sure!!

    Are you talking about a shuffle board game?

    They sometimes use Corn Meal on them for the puck to slide on.

    We might be talking about 2 different things. That shuffleboard stuff is definitely "grainy". Had no idea it was wax though

    Remember that Pachislo I sent out to you awhile Back?

    Well there is a SELF DESTRUCT DEVICE in it that can be activated by a certain Herder in Greece.

    It's a BIG RED BUTTON he has right next to his Blue Hat on the table.

    Get to WORK or it's

    Push the Button Max!
