"Hey! Get Lead Out!"

Williams' 'Diner' is my favorite pinball game, ever. I must have shoveled at least twenty five dollars' worth of quarters into that game during the fall semester of my freshman year at RIT. Really, the only arcade game I ever spent enough time and money on to become halfway decent at.

I played that game so much that I can hear the music and sounds from just looking at the photo linked above.

I was thrilled to find Diner at an eastbound rest stop on the New York Thruway a couple of years after it vacated the SAU arcade, although it was broken. I was absolutely stunned to find the game still there when I passed through on the final leg of my journey east from California, some 7 or 8 years later. Still broken... but at least I got to hear the music again.
