Greetings Pinball Fans,
This past week was especially busy and productive for JJP!
We started in Las Vegas at the Nightclub and Bar show. We were invited by our friend and JJP supporter Brad Burdsall, who exhibited at the show introducing his new Habla Diablo Bloody Mary Mix which received an awesome response. We brought a 75th Anniversary Edition WOZ which was virtually played nonstop. Many of the bar owners in attendance commented that they did not know that new pinball machines were still being built. Certainly being at this show with WOZ was worthwhile.

Jack continued the week with a visit to the JJP Midwest Campus. There he played the current updated Hobbit Whitewood. Jack said "I was very happy with the progress. The Hobbit has a very challenging playfield with a lot going on. This is a big strategy and battle game. It is a much different shooting game than WOZ, I am very excited to see the finished product!"

Jack then visited with Pat Lawlor at his design office to see the progress on his game. Pat also invited Jack to his home to learn more about his new game and to check out his pinball collection.
