In partnership with
This Week in Pinball, we’re going shopping and gearing up for a fun announcement dropping next week.
This Week's Pinball Agenda
Song of the Week
I can’t publish a new edition of TWIP without a Song of the Week. Seriously. It’s in the official This Week in Pinball book of rules.
For this abbreviated Thanksgiving edition, I thought I’d pull out something light and danceable that’s mostly about drinking beer. Put it on as you crack open your 3rd or 30th tallboy of the day. Whatever helps you get through those awkward family moments.
Tall Boy is a thirst trap of a track (and music video) by Minnesota’s Har Mar Superstar, released way back in 2009 off the album Dark Touches.

Poll of the Week
Will you play pinball this Thanksgiving? |
Last Week’s Poll Results
“HELL YEAH!”
“Bought it and the topper. I said it was a dream theme, so I followed through with $.”
“Generally not excited by horror-themed games. So the only Spooky pinball games I actually enjoy so far are TNA and Scooby-Doo. ...Looney Tunes sux lol”
“Not a theme for the wife or kids....”
“Game looks incredible, but with that theme my wife would bloody me worse than an Evil Dead character if I put it in the house. ”
“Reliability remains a concern. Plus, not a big fan of horror.”
“This is Spooky’s best game, no doubt. Layout & Mechs look fun and well integrated. Franchi Art is beautiful, really captures and encapsulates the franchise. They got Bruce “The Chin” Campbell to do callouts. Ash better say “Hail to the King Baby!” All that said, I’m out. Spooky has done very well, in fact so well that the pin is too creepy for my house. This will be Spooky’s “Godzilla”. -ESA ”
Thank you for reading! I love putting these together, but it’s also real work, and paid subscriptions are what make it worth my time. Paid subscribers get Discord access, early access to product launches, ad-free newsletters, and my unending love and appreciation. If you are already a paid subscriber, thank you so much!
