#67 Fireball II - The Classic Pinball Podcast
It starts out great, then an interruption, a disruption and loss takes its toll on this episode. Explore the uniqueness of this particular one of a kind game. Our hope is to have someone tell us about the unique build and background of this Bally pinball machine. Bonus Feature: Pintastic ribbons.
