I'll see what I can do. I don't expect much as far as pinballs, plus it is supposed to rain. Once again, I have this thing about hauling pinball machines in the rain. So if it's crappy out, I will likely be playing games and having some beers instead of watching the auction.
Maybe Brewmania will be worthy.
Flake:
Damn the auction is this weekend. I forgot about it and I'm not sure I'm going to be able to exit early from work :-\
LL your as bad as your Dad as far as looking at the weather forecast. Its the midwest for god's sake, you know those forecasts are about as predictable as a female's mood swings.
LLUncoolJ:
I don't think the weather will be an issue either way. I'm sure they will have 4 or 5 SS machines in average to crappy shape. If there is anything decent, it will go for 20% more than it's worth (probably via buyback) and that's not including the extra 20% you have to shell out for premiums and taxes. No, I see me investing in beer signs, and then beer.

Hey, I just happen to see this thread here! I'm from Belleville, IL. Anyone going to the arcade auction Saturday? It'd be fun to hang out w/ other STL area dorks.
I'm also hunting for a 19" arcade monitor for my cab. I've replaced my busted monitor with an LCD, but I haven't had any luck finding a replacement. Any ideas??
LLUncoolJ:
Check with the guy on craigslist that posts from Madison, IL..he'll have several empty cabinets for sale. But he sells parts out of machines, he may have something. He is at almost all of the auctions too, so if you cut a deal with him, maybe he'll bring it with him and save you a trip. I think his name is Dave, but I'm not 100%.
I'll be the fat dude lurking around the pinballs machines drinking Miller Lite.
