Pinball Weekend 3 at CBW
March 7, 2019 @ 8:00 pm - March 10, 2019 @ 8:00 pm
We have a thing for beer. We have a thing for pinball. We have a thing for being charitable. And that’s why we’re teaming up with our friends from Buffalo Pinball for our third annual Pinball Weekend!
WATCH
On Thursday 3/7 Buffalo Pinball will broadcast a special episode of “Bro, Do You Even Pinball?” from our game room. The episode will feature Munsters, a table from the 2019 tournament. You can watch the livestream at www.twitch.tv/buffalopinball beginning at 8pm.
PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE
On Friday 3/8 and Saturday 3/9 we’re holding a special high-score selfie contest featuring a different pinball table from the tournament! Simply post a selfie showing your face, high-score, and selfie card in the frame to this event page (required). At the end of the weekend we’ll award prizes to the high-score champion from both Friday and Saturday.
Friday’s featured game: Munsters
Saturday’s featured game: Iron Maiden
CHARITY
Half of all the coins pumped into our pinball games from Thursday through Sunday will be donated to Read with Reed 83 from the Andre Reed Foundation. Plus, proceeds from every pint or four pack of Let’s Go Pils sold in our taproom will go toward the charity (so drink up). You can learn more about Read with Reed 83 at andrereedfoundation.org/readwithreed83.
TOURNAMENT
The Third Annual Charity Pinball Tournament will be held on Sunday 3/10. Qualifying rounds will be held from 11am to 4pm. A $1 donation to Read with Reed 83 gets you one registration into the tournament—you can try more than once! For each attempt, you’ll receive a raffle ticket to win prizes.
The featured games will be Munsters, Iron Maiden, Metallica and Game of Thrones. You need to play each machine at least once, but can keep playing them to try to improve your score.
Playoffs will start promptly at 4pm for the top six qualifiers, with the top two getting byes straight to the finals. Playoffs will be two rounds with one game each round.
Practice up on your pinball skills and get ready to join us every day for Pinball Weekend 3 at CBW! It’s all happening at 520 7th Street on Buffalo’s west side.
