We speak with Jeff Johnsen, owner and operator of Walt's Bar in LA's Eagle Rock neighborhood about how his father taught him and his brother how to work on games as kids, almost blowing themselves up in the process.
We talk about the LA pinball scene, pricing games, giving up his route, and how to properly rehab an old plumbing supply store into an iconic LA bar, replete with 10 vintage pins.
Join us for a chat with one of the wildest pinball operators we have ever chatted with, as we talk about one of the most vibey pinball locations in the country using some choice adult language.
