He randomly popped on this episode today, and it closing with Fischer was perfect since he's a total chess nut. Early pinball machine didn't have bumpers so it was mostly random which led to it being used for gambling. The original prohibition wasn't that bad an idea, they just didn't revisit the issue soon enough.

muscles like this? posted:There was also a thing where pinball machines used to actually payout stuff like tickets you could redeem for items/money. Yeah I was reading about Pachinko where you buy balls and then win balls. It's illegal to trade the balls for money. You use your ball winnings to get special prizes. Then you go next door and trade the special prizes for cash. Well done, Japan.

He's done the show before. He's a seasoned drinker and the first time was very drunk as well. I know a buddy of his from college days and he apparently used to dress like a greaser, all 50s and poo poo.
