Cliff Friedel Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Posted this somewhere else, but I figured this is probably the best place for it. I wanted to see if anyone who was going to CGE wanted to go to the Pinball Hall of Fame. It is open fairly late into the night and has over 200 pinball machines that you can view and play. It's free to go in. Figured maybe we could all get together and head over at the same time. Anyone interested? Cliff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I'd love to visit the Pinball Hall of Fame, but I certainly will not be able to do that during CGE show hours. So I'll probably have to make it out there before the show or maybe on Monday before I head out of Vegas. Their hours are listed here: http://www.pinballmuseum.org/games.php ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Jefferson Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The POH is definitely something I'd like to check out... My flight is very early Sunday morning, so I need some things to do Saturday night anyhow (I don't think I'm going to bother with a room that night). What are the hours of CGE?

What are the hours of CGE? 9am-4pm on Saturday and Sunday. There is an auction on Saturday that goes from 6-9pm if I remember right. Just go to http://www.cgexpo.com. They have a schedule there.

cx2k Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Actually Tim Arnold who runs the Pinball Hall of Fame will be hosting a party at the museum on Saturday night. I spoke to Tim today and the good times will start after the CGE Charity Auction ends (around 9-9::30). The place will be hopping till midnight (longer if people want to stay) and they'll be soft drinks and snacks available for everyone. Tim will provide some shuttle service but the PHOF is very close to the Tropicana and you can take a bus (runs every 12 minutes) for $2. Should be a great time. John there might be an after party there done by the intellivision guys like they did back in 2007 That would be cool and would kill two birds with one stone =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Iacovelli Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 thats one party down, is there a DP one as well(or an Atariage one for that matter) either way prepare to be invaded by the group known only as the JS-II members Actually Tim Arnold who runs the Pinball Hall of Fame will be hosting a party at the museum on Saturday night.

Cliff Friedel Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 Nice. Will be nice to see a lot of people there, looking at and playing the machines. The design, creation, and playing of pinball machines is a lost art if you ask me, especially the older machines. Will be neat to see.

chrisbid Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 not too many people went to the phof saturday night, but my wife and i took advantage of the free ride to/from and we really enjoyed it. i loved how they leave the lights off at night, the machines were gleaming.

Dan Iacovelli Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 there was too many after parties: Atari age had one Digital press had one Pinball hall of fame had one and even the Jaguar sector-II gang had one(it was at game works) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 I would have loved to go to the Pinball Hall of Fame, but I was helping host one of the parties so that was out of the question. Maybe next time? Like on a Friday or Sunday night. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cebus Capucinis Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Wanted to go but beer was at house. Beer at house trumps no beer at pinball HoF in my book... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
