I'm impressed with the pinball idea too. It personalizes it, yet continues the theme with a bit of whimsy and as you know from this site, stuff like that can be frowned upon. You've got moxie and a great pad!

Thanks. When I set out to build this bar, I was determined to fit a pinball in it somewhere, and when the opportunity came up to buy the Bali Hi machine, it was just too perfectly serendipitous to pass up.
I've really never gotten any flack from the folks at TC for mixing themes, and quite frankly, it wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference to me if I did. It's my space, and I love it.

It certainly is. Bally only produced about 70 of them, and only 4 or 5 are known to still exist, so it's very rare and collectible.
