Nerds playing pinball on Thursday night. Our last strikes event for a little while. Congrats to Dwayne & Mary for finishing 1/2 in the tournament. Next week will be Group Match play, and then a few weeks of Flipper Frenzy! Thank you to Julie & James for their creative donations, which will go into our prize pool and also towards the women's state championship fund. Thanks to everyone who came out to play!

How about a day of golf in a pinball museum? Join us for a pingolf tournament on Sunday, May 31st. Tee time is 11:30 am.

Do I need to bring golf clubs? No. Pingolf is an objective-based tournament with 9 holes (pinball machines). Players try to reach target scores with golf scoring. Reach the target on the first ball and you get a hole-in-one! Games will be set to five ball play.

There will be a finals round of golf for the top 8 finishers

Golf attire is encouraged! Prizes for best dressed.

This event will take a few hours, so bring snacks!

Games are free to play with paid museum entry. IFPA tournament sanctioning fee is $1.
Tournament director: Brandon Atchley

It looked like there was going to be a tie for first until the last round at Stern Army Night at the Museum! A big thank you to Doug Brown for being a TD. There was a tricky call on Firepower.

🏆Congrats to Matt, Avery, and Keela for the 1-2-3 finish!

Quin won the random drawing for an AC/DC translite.

❤️30 players! Thank you for supporting nonprofit pinball

So... sometimes TDs (especially this one) make mistakes. I wanted to try a different format. My apologies for not realizing how long this one would go. I need to be put into TD timeout or something. It was fun, but not my intention to go until 11pm on a school night. Sorry friends. I like the format and will try again, with fewer strikes or on a different day of the week. Congrats to Avery for surviving 13 matches to win! Thanks to everyone who came out to play. ~dwayne
