Team pinball, charity, and beer. Need I say more?

My attorney would say yes, yes I do.

We’re doing our first ever split flipper tournament! And best of all, it’s to support the Path of Play charity: www.pathofplay.com

Here’s the scoop: You and a partner form a team. That team will battle other teams (12 total), in a winner take all split flipper battle royale. Format will be five strikes and we’ll play in groups of four teams per machine.

When: Sat. April 28, 2 p.m.

Where: Flying Bison Brewing Co., 840 Seneca St., Buffalo

Register: The cost is $20 per team. To register, please send that via PayPal to: buffalopinball@gmail.com Make sure to include your team name and team members. If it’s not sent via “family and friends”, it will be returned and you won’t be registered until you do so.

Games will be on coin-drop per usual.

This is limited to only 12 teams, so sign up before it sells out.

Prizes! 50 percent of the registration will go to Path of Play, while the other 50 percent will be paid out to the winning team.

In addition, every registered player will have a chance to win an Aerosmith pinball translite (it’s the awesome Dirty Donny back box artwork panel from a real pinball machine) from Stern Pinball, as well as Buffalo Pinball stickers and lapel pins!
