What amazed me on my trip to Seattle was just how many pinball machines are available to play there. And not only that but just how insanely well maintained 50 year old machines are. These are machines getting played on a daily basis. Where are they finding parts for these machines? It's just crazy to think about.
Seattle is great for pinball, most of the bars with 8+ machines host a team or two that play in the Monday night league. Ton of parts available at https://www.marcospecialties.com
Yeah AFAIK Seattle is the top pinball spot in the world for some reason. You would think Chicago since that's where it started and where most of the big companies are based. But Seattle has the most machines I'm pretty sure.
