The two games I took to this show. World Cup Soccer '94 and Pinball Magic. Both games were played a little more than 300 times each over the weekend!	A more distant view of the two games I took to the show.

The Apron with custom cards on Pinball Magic	A more detailed look at the "Pinball Lizard-Buyer Beware" informational cards. There are quite a few collectors who are irritated by some of "The Liz's" tactics, so we all decided to post our beliefs on the games at the show. I won't bash the Lizard any more in this public forum, e-mail me for more details on the transaction I had go bad with him.

Flea Market Action	We successfully topped last year's record of three machines in my truck by successfully stuffing FOUR in it this year. We thought better of driving it that way though, and removed one. We wound up still being able to close the tailgate even with three full-sized games in there.

The truck is STUFFED.	Another view of my truck full to the gills with pinball-y goodness.
