![]() ![]() I last hit the Sureshot in maybe 2009 or '10, when Space Mission (still listed as being there as of 2011 on Dominique's site) was there, although it was badly out of balance. But the other day, while idly thumbing through the latest "Skill Shot" ("Seattle's Pinball Zine") that I'd picked up at the Ballard Full Tilt ice cream / pinball parlor, I noticed a surprising entry: Galactic Girl was listed as one of three tables at the little "Sureshot Espresso" student hang out lounge coffee place on University Ave in the U-District. The last update on Johns' silverAge silverBall pinball operator site, from October 2011, notes that Girl was at that time in the Seattle Pinball Museum, in the city's international district. A lot of the tables are science-fiction themed? Uh so yeah, pinball!Īccording to Pinball News, the coming out party for Seattle artist Dominique Johns' custom pinball table, Galactic Girl, (aka "Dominique's Galactic Girl") took place at the Tiger Lounge in Seattle's Georgetown district in early 2010. A* Episode 20, For the next two days this blog is gonna be taken over by me writing about pinball stuff I've played recently.Hours are noon to 11 PM daily, noon to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. “We offer flavors that appeal to kids, Northwest craft beers that satisfy adults and classic games that everyone can enjoy.”įull Tilt Capitol Hill is located at 328 15th Ave E.

Their family at home is also growing with a nine-month-old in the house - the adoption was completed last week, Cline said. ![]() In 2015, Cline and wife Ann Magyar had plans to open a Full Tilt shop specializing in ice cream pops as part of the Uncle Ike’s complex at 15th and Republican but that plan was put on ice. “I’m more comfortable in that area than dealing with the bros in Pike/Pine,” Cline told CHS at the time. The obvious pairing of Capitol Hill and Full Tilt has been a drawn out affair. Go get some Ube ice cream and play a few balls. ![]() The hope is for the Capitol Hill shop to be the first to offer soft-serve ice cream made with fresh dairy and Full Tilt-style unique flavors.įull Tilt Ice Cream on 15th Ave E is open and the pinball machines are currently free. “We’re still working on our soft-serve, trying not to use unnatural stabilizers, keeping fat content as high as possible so it’s not McDonald’s,” Cline said. “Our changeover goes quick,” Cline said.Ĭline said one planned Full Tilt first for the Capitol Hill shop is still being worked out. Expect a frequent turnover thanks to the deep assortment of offerings from 20XX Amusements, the company that owns and maintains Full Tilt’s machines. Cline said there is still room to add a few more games to the opening selection including a Pac Man VS four-player machine sure to be popular with game nerds. In addition to ice cream, beer, and music, the plan is for the Capitol Hill shop to also make room for more than 20 pinball and video games. “This location is off of the ‘Pike/Pine Drinking Corridor,’ and we intend to do some of the same popular events that our patrons in other neighborhoods appreciate like ‘2-Wheel Sundays,’ neighborhood events, and live music!,” Cline said in the announcement of the new Full Tilt. ![]()
