I used to like it, and I can't say how good I was.
My son was a whizz but he is good at any games.
He was like greased lightning on the field at soccer when he was a child.
Have you ever played pinball at all and if so did you have a favorite one?
I would say the old pinball machines might be worth something now.
This kid of 19 years of age is the world's pinball champion and comes from Longmont, Colorado, USA.

I played pinball only occasionally and was never good at it. 
How great for that 19 yr old to be a champion at pinball.

@RebeccasFarm I always loved to play arcade games if we were at the shore and on the boardwalk.

Oh shame Judy..but of course out on a farm there wouldn't be any around.
Perhaps one day you may find some and play it..I would not be surprised you do everything there is to do

When I was a kid, my dad was in a bowling league . . . so the times we could go to the bowling alley with him, these pinball machines were how we occupied our time. I loved the excitement of it all . . . all which maybe lasted me less than 30 seconds .

I've played the occassional pinball game in my younger days but since I wasn't a deaf, dumb and blind boy I wasn't a wizzard at it. But I had fun.

I actually used to have a pinball machine here. I bought it for my son, but he never stayed in this house more than a few weekends,,,and wasn't really into it. I sold it. It was kind of fun, but I didn't buy it for myself.

My son used to walk up to the 7-11 when he was a kid when we live in Arkansas to play. Oh so you had one at home? That is way cool that you bought it for your son

@RebeccasFarm I don't remember if I ever seen a pinball machine physical or not. Not always coming to the arcade. Nowadays, at my area at least, more dolls machine than pinball, that's for sure.
