"Jolly Town" arcade, located in the West Manchester Mall, I think behind Toys R Us and Ollies Bargain Outlet, This mall is located at 1800 Loucks Road, just off Route 30 and before you get on Route 74 to the fairgrounds, just a couple miles away from the show. They have plenty of vids, a couple of pins and a 13 screen Regal Cinema, which you can get more info about HERE. As of August, 2007, the pins on location there are Lord Of The Rings and Pirates Of The Caribbean. There are usually different pins every two months. |

Just outside the arcade, a stunning example of what happens to someone when they go on one of those crash diets. |
This show fell on Friday the 13th, and you can bet I was going to make the most of it. The third stop on Brandon's York Tour was....his house. Every year, this garage becomes a haunted house, as documented on my York '06 dvd, along with a nice Elvira And The Party Monsters pinball machine. |

The excitement of seeing this awesome place was too much for this guy. |

Here's a shot of the right side of the garage. |
Some of Dr. Brandon's "creations." True story: I was thinking that for The York Show this year, since it was Friday the 13th, SOMEBODY had to come dressed as Michael Meyers. Well, it didn't happen, but this is the next best thing. |

Brandon is into animatronics, so Mikey moves his arm up and down in a slashing motion, through the miracle of a motor and lots of duct tape. (Any Red Green fans out there?) |
So we arrive at the show, and Bruce Moyer has brought this rare bird. |

It's a 1977 Zaccaria Nautilus pin, which wasn't quite working, but at Allentown 2007, the game showed up again, and I got it on tape, woohoo! This game might still be for sale. It belongs to Mickey Treat, in Rochester, NY, and you can contact him HERE. Tell him Pingeek sent you. Oh, and here's a You Tube tour of his gameroom. |
