"That's the whole point of pinball, fight gravity, which I believe
in."

Awesome.

[gbiz]

That was amusing. "I fight gravity with flippers" What's this
etiquette thing he eluded to?

Yea. I met this guy at the LA show. Or certainly tried to. As cocksure
in person as he is in that video. He was definitely very passionate
about playing pinball. I went up and introduced myself, tried to take
him around and have him meet several of our notable locals, even
talked to him about coming out to play in the OC league. He pretended
to be interested for 5 or 10 minutes, then put his ipod headphones
back on and went back to being antisocial. Oh well.

congrats to him on his great success fighting back against gravity.

Classic, I loved it..... "Fighting Gravity one flipper at a time
(After all, No one likes a quiter)"
I will have to check my world standings to see if I have surpassed the
new coveted "916th spot".

no other country in the world makes pinball? I guess Zaccaria and
spinball must have shipped them back to themselves. Funny stuff.

[Captain Neo]

Very entertaining Nick. Thanks for posting. Now...I'm off to fight
some gravity, one flipper at a time...

I found the guy and he's down @ 1600 now in the rankings!
http://www.pinballrankings.com/player.php?t=p&player_id=2881

I think he's a funny guy - cocksure or not. I'm anti-social 360 days a
year and I'm still a massive pinball enthusiast!
http://www.thepinballblog.com/2009/06/916th-best-pinball-player-in-world.html

Agreed it would make a good t-shirt too!

[WEC]

I love it! Reminded me of Will Ferrell. I wanna have a beer with that
guy.

Pinball has always attracted the anti-social crowd (oxymoron?). That's
why the best arcades are always dimly lit. d;^)

Keep the great interviews coming.

[Dan Q.]

But that record says the player's highest ranking ever was 1304th?

[Pins Anon]

Maybe he was around 916th when he told how many points he'd be
getting, but perhaps was down at 1304 by the time the stats were
updated and other tournies taken into account.

To be fair, he could have made it completely up - and it would still
have been funny!

Could be a whole new series.... "916 Pinball". Interviews with the
916th best pinball player according to WPPR every now and then :)

When WPPR "re-organized" in March, all the old stats went out the

No worries . . . you're back where you belong . . . for the moment ;-)

I fight gravity.

I love it.

But there's something seriously wrong with the guy with the hat.
He turned down a game of pinball.
