What are we missing?

Postby Dropshot on Wed Sep 16, 2009 8:56 pm

I was just thinking we don't seem to have a Fish Tales to play anymore, and it may just be me but if there were a Wheel of Fortune that was working I'd drop $10 in to it. World Cup Soccer is pretty fun too!

there is a world cup soccer at grand central bowl, upstairs at the west end of the building.
I'm just rehabing my shoulder... and trying to get my fuck on.

Rhodes has his WCS out on location at Slims in St. Johns. Oh wait - that's on the other side of the world for you South Easters. . .

Guess you're just gonna have to suck it up and grow a pho-hawk for grand central.

There's still a FT at Ground Kontrol and, last I heard, one at the Alleyway. Would be nice to have one in SE again.

I definitely miss seeing CFTBL and the original IJ around.

Gk doesn't count for games because playing there sucks and all the machines need work... Neither does North Portland. I just played Flinstones at Interstate Lanes on Tuesday...plays really nice. I went there to play JP though and it's gone missing. It would be nice to have that show up somewhere in the SE. IJ at C-Bar is boring, way to slow and MB is way to easy to get and to hit the jackpots. How much money are we talking here Zoe? Nhu cuts my hair and I always ask for a mohawk but she never gives me one, it's bullshit! That CFTBL is to far away and included in a horrible line-up. I'd like to see a Tales From The Crypt too.

:roll: psht, GK is rad. Maybe you're not going in there at the right time (like, avoid night time, basically). And you have to pick your games there. Mystery is constantly scrambling to fix one thing after another - he works hard. But their machines get so much play...

I used to play that Flinstones at Interstate Lanes pretty often. But now I don't live so close. I'd like it to come back to Vincentes.

despite the posh look of the building it is still in southeast portland and im sure there is something on par with pbr there. and once you see where the machines are you will realize that it doesnt matter what you look like. they have 4 there i think including a WoF that was a little iffy when i was there.

I believe he is talking about Grand Central Bowl which is INNER Se not SE, in my opinion. Which is way to far.

ah. thx. I was in the middle of editing my reply to make me seem slightly less clueless.

Maybe someone like CFF MIA Bounceback can hop across the street and scope the scene.

We just picked up a Fish Tales and a Doctor Who. Now we need to find a home for them.

I got room at my place, I'll even pay to play. You should talk/or I can too to the Lutz tavern (49th Woodstock). I spend atleast $20 a week in quarters there and they recently went down to one machine. Or talk to Pizza Roma across the street from there.
