Pinball Road Trip!!
« on: July 06, 2018, 03:04:43 PM »
So my son is home from college for the summer, and we have decided to take a mini vacation next week to head down to the east coast/ Central Florida and play as much pinball as we can. Our plan is to get a motel in the Daytona area, and leave Niceville Thursday morning. 
We are considering making our first stop over at The Pinball Lounge in Oveido, and playing there into the night.
Then Friday morning heading over to Cafe One for breakfast/ lunch and more pinball until they close, and then we will head over to the arcade museum in Daytona and check it out.
Then heading back home Saturday morning with another stop on the way back at Flippin Great Pinball in Tallahassee.
Any input or other suggestions for other locations or fun stuff  along the way or nearby are appreciated.
Our only plans so far are to eat a lot of delicious food and play a lot of pinball, and maybe meet a Villager or two in person.

Plan to spend some time in Sassy's too. It's next to Cafe One. They have some beautiful Williams games in there (Monster Bash, MM, etc).

Thanks Rob will do. It was your post a few days back about Cafe One that was the inspiration for this trip!

Swing through Titusville while you're over this way and take home my On Beam! ( http://www.villagebbs.com/forum/index.php?topic=39339.0 -- trying harder to sell it now because I have another purchase lined up and need the $ lol)

Sounds like a great trip!

If you go far enough south Silverball Musume is a MUST!

Awesome Rob! We ended up delaying the trip by one day, just got back from first the Winey Wench and then the Pinball Lounge, what a great time. Tomorrow is Cafe One/Sassys and the Arcade Museum, then heading back Sunday with a stopover at Flippin Great to check out the new Maiden!
