Notable quotes

when you go to a Comic-Con, like it's cool because everybody's there for the same thing. And so like anything in pinball, when you go to anything in pinball, you know, there's always a struggle, but everybody's there for the same thing, to play pinball and have fun.
Jason
The hardest thing is witnessing, you know, anybody having a seizure because you can only make it safe for them, and then you can't stop it as much as you wish you could.
Jason
Growing up she lost that bit of her youth of staying at a friend's house for slumber parties and stuff like that... She'd have to go about 11 o'clock, usually would pick her up, and then wake up early and take her back over in the morning.
Jason
Got to catch them all.
Host (responding to Pokemon rumor)
Mad Pinball has been by far one of the best sponsors if not the best sponsor that we've had. When I contacted you, you didn't know me from anybody, and you said, I'm in, and you've been in with both feet the whole time.
Jason
