Title: Soda Pop Show in Michigan
Post by: dr galaga on April 01, 2011, 08:23:12 am
Looks like there is a soda pop festival (kind of like a beerfest, but with pop) at the end of June near Kalamazoo. If I am in town that weekend, I may have to head over there!

sounds like a great place for a few of the Michigan boys to set up and attract a few more SOda Machine Enthusiasts... maybe bring some off brand machines to display, use and sell?
Good luck!

Do you have anymore info on this event?  Is it tied to the pinball show?

D'OH!  I guess I should look at the post on my PC instead of my phone that does not show attachments!

 It the same people that Do PinBall at the Zoo , This is where John & I got skunked on our machines that we took down there.
( told us the restored one should be price atthe unrestored prices and the unrestored machines should be lower in price .)
 Maybe this is something that the Michigan Crew can make a appearance  at and see what it is all about. 8)

   if the rest of the crew is in .

 Is that  "Pinball at the Zoo" worth the trip? it's on April 15-16. I was think of going ....I do like the pin's and there will be an auction.

For Newbies not from Michigan, the "zoo" refers to the city of Kalamazoo, MI.

"Pinball at the Zoo"

Not to be confused with freighters at the Soo!  :laugh: 8) :biggrin:  But seriously Ray, I would think that if you were going to Kazoo to see the pinballs it would be a good show however I understand that if you are selling a soda machine it is a tough crowd!
