Keycon which is one of Winnipeg's science fiction conventions has for the last couple of years has had a pinball room setup .
One of our local fans is an afficnado of all things pinball and he knows people in the business.
Utterly fantastic setup every year.

It is addicting....in fact it's time to go unload the 1976 Playmatic Fandango I picked up on the cheap last evening. Playmatic is a long gone Spanish company that made some really nice games for the time. Way better quality then the NA companies like Bally, Gottlieb, Stern, were making.
