Klassic Arcade

Save your quarters and don't tilt. Pinball at the Zoo is returning to Kalamazoo in 2019.

Five months later we have an update on Jill.

Taking you back to the basement of your youth, Slot Car Inc. is waving the green flag on 3 indoor racing tracks downtown Gobles.

What started as dizziness and forgetfulness for Jill Salter was dismissed as vertigo. An MRI found nothing, yet her symptoms worsened, becoming seizure-like, causing slurred speech and impaired motor skills. Through a second MRI months later, doctors discovered a cyst on her pineal gland, the gland that produces melatonin and is responsible for the circadian rhythm. If Jill does not undergo brain surgery, the cyst will continue to grow and cause ever deteriorating health. Due to a lack of insurance, Jill and her husband, Cory, have to pay for this expensive surgery out of pocket.

If virtual reality, comic books, classic arcade games, or good ole Skee-ball tickles your nerd fancy, these five places to get your nerd on around Kalamazoo are for you.

More play for your pay as Klassic Arcade now has two locations to play all your favorite pinball and arcade games.

Sure the graphics of today's arcade games have improved, the play is more intuitive, and you can play a multi-player game with people from around the world and never have to leave your living room. But there is still something so fun and charming about classic pinball games.

Oh, the excitement of Winter Break! Two weeks of holiday leftovers, and presents, and family visits, and fighting, and giving time-outs, and tears... WOW! That escalated quickly. Any parent knows how quickly the thrill of a break can lead to cabin fever.
