Pinball Hall of Fame
Saturday, May 4th.
1 PM
Las Vegas is known for the unusual and offbeat. Places like the Neon Museum, the Clown Factory, The Elvis Museum, the Barry Manilow Store, the Pinball Hall of Fame... Wait a second. The Pinball Hall of Fame? What exactly is that? The Pinball Hall of Fame was created by the Las Vegas Pinball Collectors Club. The 25,000-square-foot facility is the largest pinball collection in the world!
The facility is open to the public and no cost to enter. A not-for-profit corporation was established to further this cause. The games belong to one club member (Tim Arnold), and range from 1950s up to 1990s pinball machines. Since it is a non-profit museum, older games from the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s are prevalent, as this was the 'heyday' of pinball. There are no 'ticket spitters' here (aka kiddie casinos or redemption). It's all pure pinball (and a few arcade novelty games) from the past. And since it's a non-profit, excess revenues go to non-denominational charities. If planning to attend, RSVP!
