I have one and they are fun to play. Just like the game "Operation," you touch the sides and BUZZZZZZZ you lose. I actually do better when I'm drinking. That's the original 5c machine. Mine is yellow and is a 25c machine. These games sometimes came with a stand, but I'd say 95% were just used for counter tops. Pictures here............. http://www.pinrepair.com/arcade/boozbar.htm |

Now we have another reason to drink...try the Booz Barometer, have a drink, try the BB again, have a drink...
or we could all go back to playing "Hi Bob" with the Newhart reruns or quarters or...??

I'd modify it to give a shock back through the wand if the rail is touched. But i'm in that kind of mood  |
