![]() Flip Flip Ding Ding with 25+ machines has same problem … after talking to them, they improved it a bit by mixing a couple of tables, but then they brought in more machines and upstairs is now basically all machines. ![]() In Seattle, we have Shorty’s, where all the tables are in front room, back room is only machines. ![]() I find the 50-50 mix between games and tables/chairs, all of them intermixed, is the best environment. I personally hate the arcade atmosphere where it is 100% games. While many locations are great with regards to number of machines (including what looks like an amazing photo in this thread of the place in OKC), I see that OKC place suffering the same issue as many barcades … too many games, not enough bar or lounge space.

Well, the decks there are in great shape and always play as they should in the heaviest arcade traffic locations in the square state. The 1up(s) on Blake Street and Colfax in Denver, CO. Other most righteous pin-joints to check out are: Next door is Oskar Blues, so yer’ tasty beer selection is always a few steps away. They also host the Lyons Spring Classic ( ), now in it’s 11th year and it’s a stop on the 2015/2016 PAPA Tournament Circuit Event. Kevin and Carole keep their games in tip-top competition condition and are two of the most friendly and awesomely righteous pinheads you will ever meet. If you are in Colorado, you MUST stop by Lyons Classic Pinball (Lyons, CO.
