i dont like drinks near my cabinet either. when i first set it up, i installed flip down cup holders on the sides, but i really dont ever use them for anything, and i think they look crappy, so i'm going to remove them. I don't drink anything alcoholic....my wife will ocasionaly, but never in the house. So i dont have to worry about stupid drunk people wrecking my cabinet, but still a spilled can of Moutain Dew or something could really ruin my day. so no drinks on the cabinet!!! |

oh ya i dont blame ya either brad pop especially dark pop and beer can really wreck a pool tables surface and it's no fun ot look nor play on one with stains usually they kinda "harden" up the felt where the stain is.. i've never changed one but i've heard it's a real pain too. the only exception to my no drink rule would be i would sometime down the road like to have a pacman style cocktail.. that i would actually encourage the use of for eating or drinking.. but then on the other hand it'll have a single plate of glass covering the entire surface so little different. |

I only see this really working well with a cockpit design. Real drinking and driving is a huge no-no...but in the safety of your own home having a keg tap on the outside of the cockpit behind where you sit would work...you wouldn't have to concern yourself with condensation etc as there are no electronics in that section of the cockpit. But really where does it end? Next, do we build a trucker style cockpit cab that you can actually sleep in? :laugh2: |

Avoid the stale beer smell by drinking extra dry martinis! It's a superior drink, regardless. I don't mind people eating and drinking at my arcade cabinet. It happens to be in my kitchen, anyway, and the kitchen doubles as the bar in our house. I even eat breakfast at my cab most mornings, while chipping away at Adventure Island. I figure that even the highly improbably, absolute worst case scenario spill, where enough liquid is toppled onto the CP to drench the printed graphics, the MDF beneath, and simultaneously soak and short out all the electronics in the CP, it would set me back barely $200 and some time. I can live with that risk if it means knocking back Tokyo Teas while playing 'co-operative' Joust. :D |

...I thought the idea was to have a girl or two at your side holding your beer while you played. At least, that's what this college dude (playing Dragon's Lair) I saw when I was a kid at Chucke E Cheeses did. |
