Banzai Run gets a face lift


Nine years ago, we bought a pinball machine for our basement called Banzai Run. Banzai Run is a classic Williams pinball machine that was built in 1988. I paid $750 for the machine and today it is worth $2,200. If only I had invested the kid's college money in pinball machines instead of stocks.
The repair guy came today to give Banzai some tender loving care. As he opened the machine, it was amazing to see the number of electronic parts in the machine. Keith is home to give it a trial run and it is working better than ever. Can't wait to have some competitive Banzai tournaments with my kids over Christmas break. Philip will be the one to beat. He is still the reigning Banzai champion.
