Trifecta Of Power: Skee-ball, Arcade and Pinball

Every other wednesday Shorty’s is the host of this unusual Event where contestants compete on three different kinds of bar/arcade games

Try to get the highest scores on three random games and the players with the top combined scores are the winners. Well, random except for Skee-ball since that is a one-of-a-kind. At the last event the chosen pin was Medieval Madness and the video/arcade game was Ms Pac-man. Not unwinnable since almost everyone knows how to play both of them. A casual atmosphere is the vibe which works well at Shorty’s. April 26, 8pm start time, $3
