Reno had a thriving arcade scene when I was growing up, and I spent a lot of time in them. But I was quickly seduced away from the joysticks and TV screens toward the clanging physicallity of pinball.
My main compatriot during this time was Nick Delehanty, who's gone on to become a nationally ranked pinballer.
Watch Nick impress the broadcasters by hitting the hardest shot in the game and beating the greatest player of all time. Starts at 3:36:00.
Check out the all-female pinball league, Belles and Chimes.
