Are Dynamo tables
really designed better?
Will playing Foosball
grow hair in my
palms?
Is building Dynamo
tables in Texas a
handicap?
Well, we have to import a great deal of our
thinking personnel. And we keep a watch
out for ringers from Oklahoma. But it does
give us a lot of space to work in. And with
150 people building our tables, we need
space. 54,000 square feet of it.
What does it take to
break one of your
tables?
It's better than pimples isn' t it? Actually,
Foosball is completely harmless when taken
as directed. A recent survey showed that of
100 youths who had been exposed to
Foosball, 36 were in rehabilitation pro-
grams and 42 were safely behind bars. Only
14 went into government work, 6 joined
Hare Krishna and 2 became Marines. But
78 out of 100 ain' t bad.
You bet your BongoBoard they are. The
Dynamo founders were men from the coin
machine industry. And to make it in the
industry, they knew they had to make it
with the players. So the tables were de-
signed with players in mind. In fact, players
themselves did the designing and set the
standards.
Is there really a
Dynamo Fats?
What makes you so
smart?
Why should I pay more
for a Dynamo table?
Yes, Virginia, there really is. For years he
toured High Schools demonstrating Table
Soccer techniques. Then he got into some
trouble on a kindergarten playground and
retired. He now lives in seclusion (which is
just outside St. Augustine) where he makes
rhinestone cork wedgie shower shoes and
stuffs poodles.
Ask the man who drives a Rolls. Dynamo
tables are built better to last longer .
Counter-balanced men are made of space
age plastic and are attached to rods of air-
craft steel. Playing surfaces are made of lex-
turized glass. The cabinet -is a solid 350
pounds that withstands the most rugged
play. Nothing has been spared to make our
tables solid, dependable and the best in the
business. That s because Dynamo means
business.
Write for complete brochure and
product information :
I' m glad you asked me that. But don't ask
me why.The Bruce Lee Memorial Schools
of Maim and Mayhem have two units that
have outlasted a brick fire station. And the
rumor is, though unsubstantiated, that one
of our tables recently jumped 19 Harley-
Davidsons and rolled away without a
scratch.
Why don't the little
Dynamo men have
faces?
Dynamo doesn' t go in for needless fancy
frills. We put our efforts into making the best
table money can buy. One that will stay on
the job longer and produce more revenues.
Besides, it's a well known fact that our com-
petitors have those faces put on at great
expense by exiled Chinese chopstick car-
vers who now live on Guam. But they' re so
busy chasing Gooney birds for the Navy
that they're unreliable.
I have an incredible IQ, read only Intellec-
tual Digest and employ highly talented writ-
ers to answer your questions. They've got
all the answers, so if you've got a question,
send it in. Please. The typewriter is rented
and we need the work.
