True Confessions of a
PINBALL ADDICT
By Harold Balde
Let me take you on a journey —
Like most serious addicts I felt I must own my very own pinball
machine. This way I could play myself to death without going
totally broke. My search began with little success since pinball
was illegal in Toronto in the early 1970#s. However, private owner
ship was another story.
First, I found a 'TOR SALE" ad in the local bargain hunter
newspaper.
Seeing that ad transported my thoughts into Rod
Serling's Twilight Zone. I had visions of a beautiful machine that
would satisfy my lust. But then a stroke of fear crossed my mind,
"Could the machine already have been sold?".
