the only time I ever played pinball was with TheBullDoza at jackpot. fun times were had. except for when we had to beat up the machine to get the ball back.

4/6/2010 7:48:09 PM

lol...oh yeah! I forgot about that

That was one flaw

4/6/2010 7:49:28 PM

that shit kept eating our balls

4/6/2010 7:50:32 PM

lol...and holding our balls in random crevices after they came out of the shoot!

4/6/2010 7:52:03 PM

and half the time I tried to paddle the balls, I'd miss

4/6/2010 7:53:06 PM

You do suck at hitting balls DDK. They kept dropping in your hole!

4/6/2010 7:56:38 PM

I suck at balls

4/6/2010 7:57:17 PM

i was going to say that you paddled the balls well for a n00b...there was a few times where you had more balls than you could handle...it was rather uncomfortable to watch to be honest

4/6/2010 7:57:17 PM

it was my first time! what did you expect

4/6/2010 7:58:49 PM

this innuendo is terrible.

4/6/2010 8:05:07 PM

4/6/2010 8:08:09 PM

you missspelled obligatory

4/6/2010 8:08:43 PM

4/6/2010 9:17:50 PM

4/6/2010 9:19:59 PM

sweet prince

4/6/2010 9:21:04 PM

I'm pretty sure we'll send it out with a bang

4/6/2010 9:25:18 PM

4/6/2010 9:29:04 PM

4/6/2010 9:44:12 PM

I have to go to jackpot one last time. I WILL!!!

4/6/2010 9:46:06 PM

fuck

4/6/2010 9:52:55 PM

god dammit

4/6/2010 9:59:18 PM

If the condos are going forward, I'm guessing this spells the end of IHOP and Jade Garden as well?

4/6/2010 10:10:38 PM

I think that block is safe

[Edited on April 6, 2010 at 10:15 PM. Reason : (the jade garden block)]

4/6/2010 10:11:47 PM

ahahah you sad tight pant wearin plaid wearin fixie riding motherfuckers

Oh no! Where ever will people get their fix of shitty beer and Where The Wild Things Are murals?!

4/6/2010 10:17:39 PM

I don't understand all the hate, wouldn't you people be happy not to have to share your bars?

You're a bunch of schadenfreude mother fuckers.

RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE

4/6/2010 10:21:29 PM

this does not sadden me as much as it would've if it happened before i threw up there and was scared to go back.

4/6/2010 10:24:06 PM

^^^,^^^^^LOL

^true...i mean if ruckus shut down, where in the fuck would kiljadn get his soundgarden fix

[Edited on April 6, 2010 at 10:24 PM. Reason : d]

4/6/2010 10:24:41 PM

He'd just break his rusty cage. And run.

4/6/2010 10:27:50 PM

Ruckus wouldn't shut down, they offer value to the community in the form of delicious pizza




when the populace decided to stop eating pizza, then there might be a problem



until then..... hipsters fucking suck.

4/6/2010 10:28:58 PM

then he will go to cloos

4/6/2010 10:30:14 PM

this could be big

this is what happened to Kelly's and the Big Bad Wolf

now where will folks get goatfaced?

[Edited on April 6, 2010 at 10:31 PM. Reason : goatfaced is what happened to Engin Atsur, it doesn't heal quick]

4/6/2010 10:31:29 PM

uh oh....this is just the start

condos go up, property values start getting bid up...

goodbye Jackpot, Sadlacks, Mitch's, Player's Retreat...well, everything.

the new model for developing cities is Northern Virginia, so get ready for Cosi to take the place of I <3 NYP. Character is dead.

DUDE! i threw up there. on myself. in a booth (on the booth and several of my friends)

no one even really noticed. and obviously i've been back. throw up is not shameful!

P.S. can i just say i LOVE miska? cause i do. she rules.

[Edited on April 6, 2010 at 10:33 PM. Reason : .]

4/6/2010 10:32:46 PM

I'm sure Jackpot can find another hole in the wall somewhere to relocate.

4/6/2010 10:33:41 PM

i saw this thread at the top of the page, and for a split second i thought it said "japan is fucking awesome" and i was hopeful, and then my mind processed it, and i was regretful again.

jackpot will have to move to Mission Valley or out of that area altogether if they want to keep their precious property values up.

character is dead.

4/6/2010 10:36:38 PM

if it is still open on April 16th, I am meeting Misha there for some final rounds. Jason needs to be there even though he barfed on the bar. Get over that.

with so much in common, one would think you'd at least acknowledge that you recognize me in the dmv

[Edited on April 6, 2010 at 10:42 PM. Reason : this is the most active thread on tww i've seen in ages!]

4/6/2010 10:36:54 PM

this made me lol hard

AND I KNOW RITE? now hipsters are gonna be taking over the bee hive and shit. wouldn't people rather keep jackpot alive and keep the hipsters segregated?

4/6/2010 10:37:40 PM

I've had a good time in there the few times I've been. I kept hearing the horror stories about how much of a shithole it was, then I went and I reflected on all of the places I've been to that are far shittier. Lesser funded Lovell and I enjoy the cocktail selection at Jackpot.

4/6/2010 10:37:58 PM

this all started when BOWLS left town...things just keep going downhill

4/6/2010 10:38:08 PM

has anyone ever been to that chinese place next to the tattoo and piercing place beside jackpot? i always assumed it was either very authentic or the worst, rancid chinese since shanghai express.

4/6/2010 10:42:45 PM

jade garden?

way better than shanghai (IMO). but its still just semi cheap chinese food

but it also isn't open at like 3am. so ya gotta do what you gotta do

4/6/2010 10:44:11 PM

crowded as shit up in here

4/6/2010 10:44:58 PM

shanghai express is absolutely terrible. not worth it at any time. unless they changed everything in the past 3 years since i left.

4/6/2010 10:45:00 PM

oh. sometimes when you're drunk at 3am and you need 13 spring rolls i think its worth it.

other than that, yea it is crappy

jade garden is good and you can eat it sober

4/6/2010 10:45:58 PM

shanghai's sweet & sour chicken is better than golden dragon's
