Retro Pinball Tournament - Dream Cruise of Pinball

Though not directly related to the Dream Cruise, there's a kind of "Dream Cruise" type event in Walled Lake on August 30th. It's a "Classic Pinball Tournament", where the tournament is on restored & classic 1970s pinball games! It's a step back in time 30 years. It's like going to the Dream Cruise, but you're able to drive the cars (or in this case, play the games.) And if your a Vet or recently unemployed, entry and play is FREE.

I think a lot of people that enjoy the Dream Cruise may enjoy this event too. It's a low cost (or no cost) event, a step back in time to a simplier era, where flipper games were "king", and the silver ball ruled.

Check out http://www.crazycarlvideo.com/playpinball for more information if you want to come play. There's really nothing like this anywhere in the country.
