The Machines.
The Tournament is being hosted by John Reuter aka BallyMan. This year the tournament will be in a new location, with plenty of parking, and more centrally located just off I-95 in southern Maine (a bit closer to Boston). Many of the machines will be from John's collection, currently numbering 106, but many will also be from local BPA members. As was the case last year this event will feature many of the top rated Solid State Pinball Tables in the world, both modern and classic.
