1Up Greenwood Village Pinball Tournament
Later that evening I drove to 1Up Greenwood Village and met my friend Bob and played in a tournament. It was his first tournament but he is no stranger to pinball. He has a few machines in his basement. It was a really fun tournament and I did well. I also got to play with a friend and play with some of the top players in the world because they live here.
|
1Up Greenwood Village is a big arcade, bar and restaurant unlike 1Up LODO which is a 21 and over Arcade Bar. |
|
I got to play the brand new Venom machine. |
|
I was also excited to see Walt Wood playing in the tournament. He is currently 37th in the world. |
I won my first round on Skateball and then got paired with my friend Bob in round 2 on Medieval Madness and won that round. It was bitter sweet but Bob was still in it and having fun.

It was a pretty close, low scoring game. We had time after the official game so we played another round and both got better scores. |
I was feeling pretty good winning my first 2 rounds and then had a bad game on Fish Tales and got my first strike for losing. You get 3 strikes and then you are out. I was still feeling pretty good and then this happened.
|
Paired with Walt Wood! Cool. This will be a spectacular loss but it will be fun. |
|
We actually got moved to Metallica because people were casually playing Venom. I got my butt kicked but Walt was super nice and fun to play with. |
|
I asked for a selfie and he was happy to oblige. He went on to win the tournament. |
It was a fun tournament and I played great. I ended up tied for 5th. We will see how this all plays out when I get my IFPA points but it was probably my best tournament yet and it was a lot of fun.
|
Tied for 5th! I will probably end up 6th or 7th when it all plays out but still a great result. |
That was it for today. If you missed
