My day at the fair

The Italian Job 2 £25 - Again loads of lights missing lol. Luckily I got onto the top board where most if its lights were still intact. When I had a flat battery (lost 1 car), I collected 3 cash knockouts and got £10.

Lock & Load £5 - This was a Red Gaming machine that had a board game. Very unusual for them, but nice game play and absolutely crazy sound package. Although I only won the odd quid, boards were frequent and I think that's important for a fruit machine if you're playing for entertainment.

Lock & Load was a very good game. Slow payout means it works.

Last time I went to a funfair was on that massive green in Cambridge. Ready To Rock streaked off a golden hold jackpot and the f***er iou'd for something like £60. No money in the hopper to start. They told us to f*** off.

Found a full Italian Job 2 in another arcade across the green (with all lights working) and I took every pound out of it. Another arcade had a Chuzzy which spun in 4 or 5 jackpots off a very early setup. Luckily that had a sufficient amount of money in it. The girl in the change box saw this and went round the back for some reason! We didn't hang about to find out!

Luckily enough I still have a Hot Stuff 10 minutes from where I live which is good for a few sheckles and nostalgia each week.

2001 it was released.....where do the years go????

I believe hot stuff was released about mid 2002.

I believe hot stuff was released about mid 2002.

Yeah, I've only ever known red/blues with £25 jp, so Hot Stuff being the first, would have been out at some point in 2002.

It doesn't really matter what year it was released.......but it was 2001. I was playing it today and the decals sure said 2001.

£20 made on it too, not bad for a Monday in a dodgy independent arcade.

What is it with fair machines? I played a PCB recently at one.Looked dead as a dodo,took 2 reel blasts Jp,then next board 4 reel blasts jp again.

Never seen it once before off of reel blasts,and there's one in a arcade here I play regularly.
