A Special Pinball Show Tribute To Wayne Neyens

The Pinball Show paid tribute to Wayne Neyens, a legendary Gottlieb pinball designer and engineer who passed away at age 104. Neyens designed over 180 pinball machines (159 produced) between 1949-1965, making him one of the most prolific designers in pinball history. The hosts discussed his engineering innovations, including patents for the pop bumper switch and two-player pinball machines, and highlighted his masterwork Queen of Hearts as an example of his electromechanical problem-solving genius.
