Episode 9: Port City Pinball
Tonight, we celebrate with a full take over of players and commentators from Port City Pinball. Opened in 2023, Port City Pinball has quickly established itself as the place for competitive pinball events not only in the Seacoast region, but for players around New England that are serious about tournament pinball. In addition to hyper-competitive multi-day card tournaments, PCP also runs smaller, single day tournaments and a league that’s become very popular in short time. Joining us tonight from PCP are 4 players and two commentators — I’ve asked Brian O’Neill to help me introduce everyone to you:
- Cody Erickson – NextLevel HVAC. The coolest cooling guy. When he’s not fixing your A/C, you can find “AlwaysAngry” high scores posted on your local Jaws.
- Seth Gouin – Flannel. Lumberjack. Or tree guy. Loves to chop wood on Addams Family. 4th place Classics finish at the recent New England Pinball Championships.
- Jeff Pinard – The Switzerland of pinball drama. His daughter beats him regularly…. at pinball. Collected every iteration of Gottlieb Hot Shot (Big Shot – 2 player, Pro Pool – Add a Ball). Winner of Project Pinball raffle, Godfather CE.
- Brian Yurick – Proprietor of Port City Pinball. Expert at recapping power boards. Star Wars enthusiast and a disturbing appreciation for Episode I. Likes to cook but not when there’s too many of them in the kitchen.
On commentary:
- Allison O’Neill is an owner operator of Port City Pinball, an accomplished pinball player, the only person I’m aware of to get Portal on Powerball Tron, and the recent winner of the Extra Ball Battle Strikes event at the Pinball Co-Op.
- Brian O’Neill is an owner operator of Port City Pinball, an accomplished pinball player, has not made it to Portal on Powerball Tron, and the recent winner of the Extra Ball Battle Main event at the Pinball Co-Op.
