That makes me sad. Perhaps there's a business opportunity, though? There are almost 300 pinball machines in my (admittedly more populated) area, and 150 of them are in a single establishment that combines a pinball arcade (that runs on nickels) with a bar (that does not run on nickels). It's been doing great business for 10 years or so now.

I grew up in Santa Barbara, CA, and it was the same deal.
