Skee-Ball Comes to the Mission!
Or at least it did, at Sunday Streets outside of Rhea's. But, clearly, this thing was dragged out to the street from somewhere. So where is this thing holed up? And can the public (read: me) play it?
(Also, what would it take to get a bar/venue/dollar store to keep one of these things running? I know Mission bars don't really need to do anything besides put in a pool table, pinball machine, and maybe a shuffleboard table to pack the place, but there are plenty of spots with ample space that could maybe mix things up and allow us to play skee-ball without schlepping our asses out to Buckshot.)

It's nice to get outside and play sports
That's my machine! I've got six classic Skeeball machines. The machine pictured is currently at Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem in the backyard. They'll be having a big Skeeball tournament next Thursday evening to celebrate the machine's arrival.
Oh FUCK yeah!
I think the guy that brought it out was named Joey? Mr. Mission contestant.
Nailed it Julius. Mr. Joey the Cat and I'm in the running for the Mr. Mission competition. It's all about having a good time, raising money for cancer research and celebrating our neighborhood. Thanks for looking out!
I was right!
There's also a skee ball machine at the rickshaw stop.
...which also belongs to Mr. the Cat, I think. It showed up after he did a talk about the history of Skeeball at Nerd Nite a few months ago.
Bret, you are a well-informed man. That is indeed also my Skeeball machine at the Rickshaw Stop. I also recently bought a generator so I can take Skeeball everywhere. If you see a Skeeball machine, do yourself a favor and relive some of your childhood glory by playing a game or two.
