The competition is having a surge of interest and some are suggesting it could be an Olympic sport.

They seem to be pushing this agenda about Pinball being in the Olympics!

I do believe strongly if someone in the industry saw the production quality and professionalism of the streams and broadcast it on one of the main channels, It would gain cadence and blow up. Cut scenes to the rules and intricacies of each machine. @roadshow16 explaining it all. I can see it catching on.

I’d love for each host to create / release / help design a machine for their Olympics.

I want a Paris 2024 table with various landmarks, noises etc.
