The Pinball Hall of Fame, which used to be located down the street on Tropicana, has moved to a bigger location on The Strip across from the famous "Welcome to Las Vegas" sign. There will be 700 games at the new location. I have been to the Pinball Hall of Fame when it was on Tropicana and I will definitely soon go to the new location too.   |

You had me as soon as I saw the Chexx Bubble Hockey game and what appears to be the old Bally's KISS pinball machine in the pic.

I really love this trend of video game/pinball machine museums that are hands on. There are a few around me but an hour or so away at least. I discovered them just before COVID. One I was in front of has $15 of $18 admission and play all day but it was like an hour before closing and they were closed the next day so did not get to try it out. Soon I plan on making plans to go and give it a whirl.

A significant amount of time during my final two years in college was spent playing bubble hockey. Actually missed a mid-term exam because I was in a heated 'best of seven' series (which I surprisingly won). Luckily was able to convince the professor to give me a make-up exam, so being a slacker paid off in that case.
And the bubble hockey games are actually manufactured here in Buffalo.
How far away is this from the Gold Coast? May have to check it out during CAC.
