WHEN:
Saturday, April 25th, 2009 (this is the last Saturday of the month)
There will be no pre-league meeting.

  4. Nascar
  5. Indiana Jones 4
WHERE:

Special Instructions:
Alternate Game POTC or LOTR

If the new tops tourney is set up on LOTR, POTC will be the alternate as not to disrupt the tourney.

All games will be set up for coin play, and we will pay, so bring your change.

This is a public place, no where in the rules does it say you cant go to a public place, thus pratice starts NOW, i do believe Marvins opens at at noon on saturday, have at it!! BUT be warned, Parker, Scott, Eric and I may be setting games up during this time on saturday and will ask not to be interupted if doing so. ( ie; settings changed, outlanes opened, ect ect ect.)

Also, I'd like all members to stick around in area of pinball machines so we can power our way thru league. The way I see it, if there are 20 people around the pinball machines, non-members may see this as non-inviting to play pins that night.

PUT UP OR SHUT UP will start no later than 10:15 pm. If we do not meet this time, put up or shut up round will be cancelled. Our host closes at 11 pm.
