David Dennis
co-Host
David joined the pinball hobby in the summer of 2018 after he and his wife ended up stranded over night in a hotel which happened to have an old school arcade… Remember those? From when we were kids? Shortly after it dawn on him driving back home, that he was now an adult and he could own a pinball machine if he wanted… the sickness struck.
David’s first machine needed work to say the least and after many solder burns and blown fuses he decided to take some time and learn about the machine which sat dead in his garage. He wondered ‘who were the characters involved in building this box of lights’? That was the beginning of Silverball Chronicles.
