Chicago has nothing on Seattle (OK, except for a manufacturer, and the Sharpe brothers promoting pinball).
Monday Night Pinball in Seattle now has 26 teams with 10 players each, plus a massive pool of substitute players. We've grown to the point of splitting into upper and lower divisions with promotion and relegation.

- debatem1 7y agoI was about to say, the size of the pinball scene in Seattle is unbelievable. Two of the top ten ranked players in the world live here, and probably 10 more of the top 100. That's versus 3 in the top 100 for Chicago.
- subway 7y agoSince the start of 2018 those numbers have gone down quite a bit, mostly due to the shake out of "dollar gate", leading to some of the popular local tournaments no longer reporting results to the IFPA. Despite the local rankings dropping a bit, it feels like the community has grown drastically.
