Wow, what a great turn out for KB’s pinball tournament. Jamie & Debra opened their home last night to host this pinball gathering.

Are you Tuff Enough!?

Are you good enough to join Spencer’s Pinball Bobsled Team?

Well think again punk! Only the top condition athletes with PinFit training & no next of kin or bright futures should even considering applying for this. In any event, you must first have a strong desire to become PinFit and be willing to set out upon the journey of a lifetime. Why? Because it will seem like a lifetime until you become one of the very, very few who successfully complete the PinFit training and make it to the SPBTeam.

Spencer’s dictum is: “I will never quit. I persevere and thrive on adversity. My nation expects me to be physically harder and mentally stronger than my enemies. I will draw on every remaining ounce of strength to protect my teammates and to accomplish our mission. I will never give up the fight because we train for war and fight to win. The execution of my duties will be swift and violent when required to take out my pinball opponents.” Our PinFit training program will help you:

• Achieve a level of fitness and mental toughness you once only thought of & what other Pinheads are dreaming of.


• Develop PinFit skills & abilities to shred hardwood floors, tile- ceramic or marble, & carpet with coordination and confidence!


• Dramatically increase your athletic & pinball performance 30% or more in less than 6 weeks, (actual results may vary. These results from our on-site PinFit training center in Teustepe, Nicaragua (Note: PLEASE bring your own quarters!)) Also, build lean muscle mass in as little as 6 weeks.


• Learn & perfect the proper maneuvering of a pinball machine through the beach obstacle course while developing cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, strength, power, speed, agility, balance, flexibility and accuracy that are needed to maintain the stamina for extreme & violent pinball machine craving.


• Use exclusive exercises formerly known only to PinFit elite trainers. Train using functional exercises not found in traditional gyms or arcades, which build core stability, prepare you for the unknown, and make you fit across a broad spectrum of pinball playing skills. The PinFit program utilizes a combination of PinFit “STD” (SlamTilt Drives) and PinFit “CPT” (Carve Physical Training) regimens which is the same training that the elite Spencer’s Pinball Bobsled Team units now use to chisel their bodies, compete at their elite level, and help them survive the hardships of special pinball tournaments.


• Reduce injuries.

You don’t have to be crazy but it surely comes in handily when others of clearer minds & sensibility would be running for cover. If you like what you read, Then you are that crazy! “The difference between pinball and others games is that in pinball you bury the guy who comes in second.” -Spencer

*** THIS A JOKE! PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT ME, THINKING THAT THIS A REAL TRAINING PROGRAM!***

Have Fun,

Rocky is supporting the Cheaters.

I went to Rocky's Replay to find out that they have altered the Stern's Wheel of Fortune Pinball Machine because too many people complained about the game being too hard for them.

WHAT? It is true… that some people could not comprehend the pinball outlane configuration so Rocky's stretched rubbers across the outlanes to block them from a possibility of a ball drain.

WHAT? I am not making this up… the only way to drain the ball to end your turn is lose your ball down the double middle lanes or get a tilt by accident.

WHY? I don’t know why… the outlanes have a nice ball save feature, the free spin awards that gives you another ball if your ball enters that particular lane that is lit as it is draining. The Free Spin Awards can be earned, one at a time, for all four lanes by hitting the “U” drop targets on the playfield, so if you have all four lit it is identical to having a extra ball awarded.

READ. I think it is poor taste to change the game because it is "too hard" for a few people to figure it out, because they chose not to learn the game. The Instruction Card on the Left Top side of the machine explains everything that is needed to realize how to play this game.

The Wheel of Fortune pinball machine is good playing machine because it is different in that way & I had to learn how to play it because it was a different playfield layout. That is pinball, some games are harder then others, that is what makes these machines unique from one to the next.

Doesn’t the harder challenge makes you a better pinball player in the end & coming back for more?
