I'm trying to get stuff written and ready for Wednesday and particularly Thursday, a day I don't expect to be functional at all, so sorry, all I have for you right now are pictures. Oh, also a chance to tell you What's Going On In Olive and Popeye? Is Olive Oyl dead? She's not dead, but she has been more solid in the past.
While the tournament carries on, the show gets carried off; most of the tables had been turned off and were moving out by now.

bunnyhugger gets a game in on the new Jersey Jack table, The Godfather.
Un-auctioned games being loaded up. The poster offers prices for the tables; for example, for the Alvin G Soccer Ball? $4,500 or best offer. Or two thousand bucks for a Target Alpha. Bally's Mr and Mrs Pac-Man, one of the games to make Namco ask Midway, ``Wait, did we actually license that?'', looks like it's listed at $2,500.
bunnyhugger racking up the day's fourth-highest score as she plays The Godfather. Nearly six million points, and on a Jersey Jack game where the scoring's by single-digits; who's going to match something like that?
Uhm. Sorry.
Back to cocktail pins! What do you think of Night Moves past that it seems to be someone's very funny idea of what swinging adults do? Love the retro-Deco typeface on the playfield there.
