Yes it was a great trip, I would reccomend it to anyone. Stern is very busy and I think there moving ahead with the times as well.
Unfortunatley I didn't bring anything back with me.
Yes that is John Trudeau, nice guy and like most people in the states he is very freindly.
I got to play some pins like the Whoa Nellie in the picture. It is one of three and I spoke to one of the ladies in that booth and she told me that the pinball is only one of three and would love to get an invester to mass produce it or you may buy it for $20,000. She also told me a that an Aussie expressed interest in it. The pinball was designed by Dennis Nordman and Greg Freres.
