New Wellington Water beer match! Chris at Kereru knows our pain, so he's made a very tasty hazy with a very cheeky kea on the can. Dodge the road cones and flap in for a flip and a froth.
The Overdue Dune Launch Party is on today! You have until 6pm to put up your best scores on Dune and Labyrinth by @bofpinball, Portal, Close Encounters, Cirqus Voltaire and Mandalorian, then we'll run a finals playoff for the top 6 or 8 (depending on numbers). No entry fee, just coindrop on the qualifying games you play, and finals will be free. A Dune banner is up for grabs, and the lead sculptor for the game @stevensaunderssculpture will be here at about 4:30pm for a meet & greet and to sign our game and the banner!
Relive the glory days of cassette mixtapes, arcade showdowns, and Python Anghelo’s laser-drenched fever dreams. Miami wine coolers are back, and they make the perfect pairing with 1987's Big Guns, featuring my favourite Python pinball artwork. Pop down and enjoy a mid-Winter taste of Summer today!
Vinyl Spinners II is on at YOPS! We're playing records and flipping silverball all day till 11. Watch along at https://www.mixcloud.com/FN7087/ or https://www.twitch.tv/pinballshoppe
